YRC Worldwide on Wednesday unveiled its rebranded unit YRC Freight, formerly YRC Inc.

The less-than-truckload carrier introduced the new brand to employees late last month and said it was rolling out a new logo, uniforms, equipment and signage across North America.

“Moving freight is our heritage, what we do best and the key to our future,” said Jeff Rogers, president of YRC Freight.

“We’re in the freight business — that’s what we do,” YRC Worldwide CEO James Welch told Transport Topics during an interview Wednesday in Arlington, Va.



“For the foreseeable future, our business is based on being the best LTL we can be,” he said.

YRC Worldwide is ranked No. 4 on the Transport Topics 100 listing of U.S. and Canadian for-hire carriers.
