Becker Logistics, a third-party logistics company based in Glendale Heights, Ill. has undergone exponential growth and announced the grand opening of a new office in Jacksonville, Florida.
This office will be Becker Logistics' first nationwide office post-COVID and added nine employees to kick off the team. Before COVID, Becker Logistics had 10 offices across the USA and Canada. Since then, their employees follow a split work from home/work in the office policy where now they don't require as many offices.

This 6,300 sq. ft. office will allow them to expand many areas of their business. New experience coming in will result in more business with paper products, food products, dry van, refrigerated, and flatbed. Additionally, this office will allow Becker Logistics to capitalize on its intermodal vertical as they explore recruitment opportunities to add talent.
"This is an area that we have always wanted to be in, and we are finally here! The executive team has been working on this project since October 2021 and this office will be the new flagship of what our future offices look like in North America," said Jim Becker CEO/Chairman of Becker Logistics.
