Food Chain Digest Names Werner a 2023 Top Food Chain Provider

OMAHA, Neb.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Werner Enterprises (Nasdaq: WERN), a premier transportation and logistics provider, announced its recognition as a 2023 “Top Food Chain Provider” by Food Chain Digest, the official magazine of Food Shippers of America (FSA).

The program highlights third-party logistics companies (3PLs), freight brokers, motor carriers, rail/intermodal and maritime companies (ocean carriers and port authorities) that excel in capabilities and service to food shippers. After a preliminary list was named by FSA, nearly 6,000 participants in the food industry voted for organizations with the strongest reputations and value. Companies who earned the most votes were then validated by FSA, which determined the final list of 25.

"After being named to the inaugural Top Food Chain Providers list in 2022, we are honored to earn this top 25 recognition for the second year in a row,” said Werner’s Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer, Craig Callahan. “Our professional drivers and associates work tirelessly to exceed the expectations of our customers in the food industry, and we are privileged to support our nation’s food supply in our quest to keep America moving.”

Werner offers a diverse portfolio of service offerings and collaborates with shippers to solve their freight challenges through custom-built solutions. In November of 2022, the company strengthened these efforts by acquiring ReedTMS Logistics, who offers a comprehensive suite of freight brokerage and truckload solutions to a diverse customer base and excels in the food and beverage industries.

FSA brings together a community of supply chain and logistics professionals from the food and beverage industry and their suppliers to facilitate education and networking opportunities to improve supply chain efficiencies. To view the full list of companies recognized, visit here.
