#1 Trucking Customer Service – LALA Foods
/0 Comments/in Company news /by Kristin BraithwaiteWe’re proud of our commitment to excellence and it shows. We’ve recently asked some of our customers to let us know how we’re doing. It’s important to us that our reputation in trucking customer service is always satisfactory.
We asked Craig Morrell, a transportation supervisor for LALA Foods to give us some feedback on our service, and this is what he had to say.
Gary, and his team at Olympic are a good example of what it takes to do business in today’s trucking industry. They show professionalism with a personal touch, always taking care of our customer’s orders, and making sure the service is excellent. I have no worries when I tender a load to Olympic Transportation.
