Old Dominion Awarded Logistics Management’s “2013 Quest for Quality Award”



THOMASVILLE, North Carolina (August 7, 2013) – Old Dominion Freight Line was recently honored with Logistic Management magazine’s “2013 Quest for Quality Award” in both the Expedited Motor Carriers and Multiregional LTL categories.
This year marks the ninth-consecutive year Old Dominion has received the award, which recognizes top performers in the transportation and logistics industry. The magazine will feature the 30th Annual Quest for Quality Awards in this month’s issue.
To determine the winners, Logistics Management distributed an extensive survey to readers who qualify as buyers of transportation and logistics services. The readers evaluated carriers on five key measures: on-time performance, company value, customer service, equipment and operations, and information technology.
“For nine years now, Logistics Management readers have rated their experiences with Old Dominion extremely favorably,” said David Congdon, Old Dominion’s president and CEO. “This kind of positive feedback from our customers motivates us to uphold our commitment to offering a premium service and reaffirms the OD family’s tireless dedication to helping the world keep promises.”
Old Dominion maintains a value proposition that provides customers with on-time delivery, one of the lowest claims ratios in the industry and award-winning technology at a fair and reasonable price. By staying true to these promises, the company continues to expand its nationwide network; Old Dominion recently expanded its service centers in Fort Wayne, Ind., and Fort Smith, Ark.
