The Need for Speed To compete eectively,
our members need their orders delivered on
a consistent, timely basis, especially during
the peak spring season. Managing the variable
demands of a transportation fleet is not the
core business of a hardware co-op.
Expanding a 40-Year Partnership Ryder has
supported True Value truck transportation
for decades. It was time to expand the
partnership, more fully leveraging this
transportation leader’s world-class fleet and
expertise to free us to focus our time and
resources on our core objective: accelerate
co-op member growth.
Improving Transportation Reliability and
Quality Ryder’s specialized vehicles, expert
maintenance, fleet optimization software
and tracking/tracing technology will deliver
greater transportation productivity, reliability
and quality.
Momentum: We’re Just Getting Started
Ryder took over management of 10 of our 12
U.S. distribution centers in 2015; the remaining
two are planned for transition in 2016.
Our members need what they need, and they need it when they
need it. Our expanded partnership with transportation leader Ryder
will improve shipping speed, reliability and delivery quality.
Our shipments are hitting the highway in True Value-branded Ryder
trucks to get to you on time and in good shape.
