May 4, 2022<\/strong> \u2013 Odyssey Logistics<\/a> (\u201cOdyssey\u201d), a worldwide leader in logistics and technology solutions, announced it has created four new operating divisions comprised of the following supply-chain components:\u00a0Intermodal<\/a>,\u00a0Transport & Warehouse<\/a>,\u00a0Freight Forwarding<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Managed Services<\/a>. Given the size and diversity of Odyssey\u2019s business structure today, the new division alignment emphasizes the company\u2019s value proposition for customers across its global service platform and aligns existing business units across common markets, modes and services.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\u201cBy consolidating into operating divisions in market-based modal alignment, Odyssey is uniquely positioned to drive synergy, optimization and organic growth from the bottom up,\u201d said\u00a0Keith Hancock<\/a>, Chief Executive Officer of Odyssey. \u201cWe are creating a combined and concise value proposition that is further enhanced by targeted acquisitions and efficient support structures worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Since its inception, Odyssey has acquired 16 companies that form the basis of its current global service platform. As a provider of market-leading multi-modal services and strategic supply-chain solutions, Odyssey transacts more than $3 billion in freight each year for customers worldwide. The new division operational alignment reflects Odyssey\u2019s continued focus on its service offerings and accretive acquisition strategy. Through synergistic acquisitions and organic investment, Odyssey has amassed unique expertise and capabilities across a wide range of sectors including, but not limited to,\u00a0chemicals<\/a>,\u00a0metals<\/a>,\u00a0food and beverage<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0freight of all kinds<\/a>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\u201cThis new division structure enables us to more effectively manage our collective business, simplifies our logistics market message, streamlines operational reporting and creates business combinations that can more effectively react to growth opportunities given common mode and service platforms within each division,\u201d said\u00a0Cosmo Alberico<\/a>, President and Chief Operating Officer of Odyssey.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

In tandem with the new divisional structure, Odyssey announced several promotions and new assignments across its Executive Team that will drive the company\u2019s new strategy forward.\u00a0Glenn Riggs<\/a>\u00a0assumes the role of Chief Strategy Officer,\u00a0Michael Pozzi<\/a>\u00a0was promoted to Chief Financial Officer and\u00a0Laura Sheehy<\/a>\u00a0was promoted to Chief Human Resources Officer.\u00a0 The Company also announced that each division will be led by a Division President, naming \u00a0Ken Stratton<\/a>\u00a0(Intermodal),\u00a0Bill Ritter<\/a>\u00a0(Transport & Warehousing),\u00a0Kevin Kelly<\/a>\u00a0(Freight Forwarding) and\u00a0Charlie Midkiff<\/a>\u00a0(Managed Services) to these key roles supporting the new operational alignment.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
