Con-Way Makes Two Key Moves
Con-Way Transportation Services announced the relocation of its corporate headquarters to Ann Arbor, Mich., from Palo Alto, Calif.
Con-Way, a unit of CNF Transportation, Menlo Park, Calif., operates a network of regional less-than-truckload carriers and provides expedited, truckload and intermodal services.
The move is expected to improve communications and allow for easier travel for corporate employees. The new location is within one time zone of 92% of Con-Way's customers and 84% of its service centers.
Separately, Con-Way launched a new business, Con-Way Integrated Services, to provide single-source supply chain management services, including warehousing, inventory control and multi-modal transportation.
The new company will operate a supply chain management center in Chicago that will use a variety of technologies, including electronic data interchange and Internet communications, to give help shippers track and manage shipments throughout the country.
