GLENDALE, WI – Maglio & Company announces today the expansion of their transportation fleet to include 13 new trucks that will be managed by a dedicated team of logistics experts at Blackhawk Transport.
“Being the best fresh produce solutions provider in our distribution area is our commitment, and partnering with the right companies is key to success,” said Sam Maglio, President of Maglio & Company. “Blackhawk reinforces our ability to provide full-service transportation services with prompt deliveries to customers throughout our distribution area. They are not only like-minded in our efforts to maintain the integrity of our perishable cold chain, but they are an established carrier with unbeatable logistic services that will enhance our operation.”
In partnership with Blackhawk, Maglio will ensure that the expanded fleet maintains products at the high standards directed by the Global Food Safety Initiative guidelines (GFSI) and demanded by customers. Each truck will be equipped with technology approved by the Department of Transportation that allows Maglio to obtain route updates and communicate with drivers. The partnership between Maglio and Blackhawk began in the spring of 2012 and trucks being managed by Blackhawk will be traveling in late June.
