YRC Freight Expands Regional Next-Day Service in the Mid-South and Waco, Texas
August 05 2020 - 10:41AM
YRC Worldwide (NASDAQ: YRCW) announces the expansion of YRC
Freight’s Regional Next-Day Service to the mid-South region and
also Waco, Texas. With the addition of more two-day lanes between
the mid-South and Texas, YRC Freight’s Regional Next-Day service
expansion is the latest step in YRCW’s enterprise network
optimization strategy.
“Through Regional Next-Day service, our customers
in Texas and the mid-South can access just-in-time scheduling that
offers benefits of lowered inventory cost and fewer supply chain
interruptions,” said Scott Ware, Chief Network Officer. “Results
have been very successful since we launched Regional Next-Day
service in Texas last fall, and it’s exciting to be expanding the
service in six new states.”
The Regional Next-Day service in Texas connects 11
terminals across the state to provide best-in-class service. In the
mid-South, Little Rock and Springdale, Ark.; Springfield, Mo.;
Tulsa and Oklahoma City, Okla.; Shreveport, La.; Memphis, Tenn.;
Jackson, Miss. and Texarkana, Tex. will be connected through YRC
Freight’s network and Regional Next-Day service offering. Customers
will now have access to faster transit times and more streamlined
supply chains, along with fewer damages due to less freight
handling.
YRC Freight is currently performing at or above
best-in-class competitors with a 98.5% on-time performance and a
claims ratio of 0.13%.
“The expansion of Regional Next-Day services is a
strategic investment to position YRC Freight for growth,
operational improvements and continued responsiveness in servicing
our customers with the YRCW companies’ strong, flexible network,”
said Jason Bergman, Chief Customer Officer. “We remain obsessive
about providing safe, fast, reliable and high-quality service to
our customers.”
