Peak Season Solutions

Landstar supports one big-box retailer's seasonal surge business and coordinates their time-critical, inbound international business.

Some years ago, a big-box retailer of home improvement and construction products began collaborating with a select group of agents and executives to improve transport of the retailer’s products during peak seasons.

“This business required a lot of coordination between planners, the agents and our trailer management team,” said Landstar Vice President of Sales Development,” David Carpenter.

Since the initial meetings, Landstar Agents Jeff Baker, Kathy Bostedo, Chris Coston and Mary Montz, along with the support of Landstar’s trailer management team, have become the go-to source for many of the retailer’s shipping needs.

“The agents pull it off every time and Landstar continues to earn high praise from the customer,” says Carpenter.
