More WIRE STORIES about this company

 PROFILE
Its logo is a skunk, but truckload carrier Simon Transportation Services stays in business by keeping its cargo smelling sweet. The company specializes in temperature-controlled transportation for major food industry customers such as Campbell Soup, Nestlé, and Pillsbury. Simon Transportation operates throughout the continental US and in Canada and Mexico with a fleet of more than 1,900 tractors and nearly 2,500 trailers. The company maintains four terminals and uses a satellite-based system to communicate with drivers and track shipments. After higher fuel costs and industrywide driver shortages hurt Simon's bottom line, Swift Transportation CEO Jerry Moyes stepped in and gained a controlling stake in the company.
