CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Feb. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Cedar Rapids, IA-based, family-owned, and operated, West Side Transport has announced the opening of a new logistics hub in Chattanooga, Tennessee. This expansion into the southeastern region of the United States will allow the asset-based trucking, logistics, and warehousing provider to continue its strategic growth across North America. The Chattanooga facility is West Side’s eighth location.
"The Chattanooga service center strengthens West Side’s truckload asset network and the new warehousing opportunities provide a solid foundation for us to deliver the premium service our customers expect and deserve," said Jim Russo, Vice President of Sales.
The full-service facility will create terminal and warehousing job opportunities to further support West Side Transport’s growing current, and future, customer base.
