Circle Logistics
Circle Logistics is a privately held third-party logistics company committed to delivering on three core promises to our customers: No Fail Service, Personalized Communication, and Innovative Solutions. Circle Logistics leverages its technology, industry experience, and employee ingenuity to develop industry-leading transportation solutions.
Circle Logistics was co-founded in 2011 as an asset carrier by industry experts Eric Fortmeyer and Chad Buchanan. Within two years, our founders expanded into freight brokerage by opening their first branch office in Chicago under Sr. VP of Sales & Operations, Andrew Smith.
Since then, we have rapidly expanded to 13 locations across the United States and 2 international offices, boasting well over 100% year-over-year growth. We serviced over $200 million in freight spend in 2018 and are excited to expand our network moving forward. Our people and our drivers are our greatest asset, and we wouldn’t be where we are today without continuous investment in talented individuals.
