Hear Why Logistics Managers Trust R&R
-
I began working with R&R Global Logistics about 3 years ago, when I was at InterWrap Corp. Their attention to detail and performance caught my attention with the first load, and continued to increase. Our broker, Jade, was very helpful during the acquisition of InterWrap Corp by Owens Corning by making sure all loads given to her were handled with care. At my new position, R&R Global was the first carrier that I brought on. This was solely based on the relationship that was created with Jade. She is always professional, always helpful, and I can trust her.
Alicia M Hanna Logistics Coordinator -

R&R Global Logistics has always offered me the best price and the best service level. I can depend on Jade with R&R with any freight I send to her. No matter how late, she is always there for me to answer my questions about my quotes or updates on my freight. I would highly recommend R&R Global Logistics for all of your logistic needs.
