YEARS OF EXPERIENCE

Working with a company that was founded in transportation

Picture

2008

Began building our own TMS Solutions for our customers.  Our direct knowledge and experience in the industry helped us focus our vision on providing shippers with the tools they need to organize and cut costs while improving service.

Picture

1990

Standard Express Inc was founded in 1990 specializing in Expedite Transportation throughout North America. As we grew our asset base and expanded our Logistics services we recognized the outdated technology in our industry that was creating bottlenecks for transportation providers and Shippers.  Standard Connect is the built by hand product that solves these problems in your supply chain to keep your business moving forward.

2010

Launched Standard Connect as a one stop shop to handle all aspects of shipping.  This includes all modes of Managed Logistics, Software integrations, Applied LTL discounts, Freight Auditing and more.
