Chicago, IL, September 11, 2014 --(PR.com)-- To grow its national customer, team and freight agent base, Sunset Transportation, Inc., a third party logistics (3PL) company, recently opened a new, larger branch office in Willowbrook, Ill., near Chicago.
The new Chicago branch office, led by manager Bob Lemon, is 80 percent larger, enabling Sunset’s Chicago team to grow and increase savings for customers. The Chicago team has increased sales since the branch opened in 2013.

Expanding Team Empowers Customers

“Our customers are our top priority, and we’re always investing in new ways to increase service and savings in our customers’ shipping, logistics and supply chain needs,” said Lindsey Graves, vice president of Sunset Transportation.
“By expanding our Chicago branch office and bringing in even more talent, customers in the Great Lakes region will gain more expertise and knowledge to power smarter supply chain decisions,” Graves added.
Growth Propels New Investments, Supply Chain Savings
