The freight market is changing, so we are, too.
Perpetual students of the dynamic transportation management industry, we've made constant investments in our technology and people to stay ahead of the curve and provide our customers with the best possible service and savings. But with a market more volatile than ever before, we recognized it was time to investigate alternative growth solutions.
We’re excited to announce that Evans has opened two new office locations, one in Minneapolis, Minnesota and the other in Chattanooga, Tennessee. We will maintain our headquarters in Brookfield, Wisconsin and our first satellite office in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida.
With more freight than capacity, today's freight market heavily favors carriers. That means that we have to work harder than ever before to secure capacity for our customers, applying optimal focus on carrier relationships and efficient carrier-shipper interactions from contracts to payment. Dedicated solely to carrier procurement and management, Evans' new Minneapolis office to respond to this challenge.
We set up shop in Chattanooga to support our goals for recruiting and scaling. According to FreightWaves, "The area is ideally situated to move freight, and that has been a big reason for its popularity. In fact, according to a freight study by Cambridge Systematics, Chattanooga ranks No. 1 of all metropolitan cities when it comes to freight movement." Add Chattanooga's proximity to top supply chain and logistics programs at world-class universities and its ideal climate for entrepreneurship and innovation, and we were sold on "Gig City" being the perfect match for Evans' continued growth.
“We’re excited about the new office space and to do something different than the typical broker,” says Ryan Keepman, Evans’ President.
Both of Evans’ new offices will provide us with the opportunity to expand our presence throughout the US and make us more accessible to our current and future customers and partners.
We are looking forward to Growing Together in these new markets!
