Forward Air Signs Logistics Agreement with United Cargo

Forward Air has become the primary provider of expedited ground logistics throughout the U.S. for United Cargo, the cargo division formed by the merger of United and Continental Airlines.

The new logistics agreement was announced this week by United Continental Holdings, the holding company for both United Airlines and Continental Airlines.

United Cargo said it benefits from its access to Forward Air’s logistics support team and shipment tracking tools.

“For the past five years, Forward Air has delivered exemplary service to United Cargo’s customers as our primary trucking service provider in the eastern U.S.,” Robbie Anderson, president of United Cargo, said in a statement. “We are very pleased to bring Forward Air’s unlimited capacity, proven reliability and innovative technology to our customers throughout the country.”
