AAA Cooper
Covering parts of Florida, Texas, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Kentucky, Tennessee, Louisiana and North Carolina. Scanning through an ATA Newsletter tidbit article, Dave Guiler, an ACT Accounting employee noticed an article concerning trucking companies needed to deliver handmade Christmas wreaths across the U.S. to national cemeteries in order to honor fallen soldiers. Dave brought the article to the attention of management who without hesitation agreed to volunteer in the effort to deliver these wreaths. Brad Morris, VP of Marketing/Pricing headed the project and writes; \"AAA Cooper was honored to participate in the Wreaths Across America™ program this week. We donated sixteen deliveries to various Veteran cemeteries in our service area. The freight was brought to us via truckload carrier and dropped at our Nashville dock. NAS then distributed these shipments to various terminals.\" On Saturday, December 12, 2009 at 9:00 a.m. thousands of wreaths were placed simultaneously on the graves of our fallen soldiers. Brad further writes; \"Every aspect of our industry participated: LTL carriers, truckload carriers, private fleets, and small package carriers. Everyone did this purely as a donation with no carrier accepting any revenues...\" The trucking industry of this country came together in unity to make sure this project was a success. ACT was proud to be a part of such an extraordinary project and the humbling experience of serving the men and women in our armed forces. Sonya Garrett

Saddle Creek Corporation
In 1966, a chance conversation about the need for local warehouse space convinced David Lyons and a friend to partner in building a 12,000-square-foot warehouse facility in Lakeland, Fla. At first, the small 3PL handled bottle caps and then glass bottles for the citrus industry. The two founders did whatever was necessary to grow their business – from sales calls to driving the lift truck to janitorial duties – always with an eye on delivering service excellence. With little warehouse space available in the area, they were in the right place at the right time. Over the years, Saddle Creek broadened its customer base and expanded its services through controlled, strategic growth, seizing opportunities that fit the company\'s strengths and strategic interests. Saddle Creek expanded into transportation with a fleet of trucks and a brokerage operation, and capitalized on growing demand for packaging services with the purchase of a contract packaging company in Charlotte, NC.
