ITS also operates a dedicated fleet recognized by the US EPA SmartWay Transport Program as a top 10% most efficient US domestic carrier.

With an impressive career spanning over two decades, Josh is a seasoned logistics professional and an innovative problem solver. Joining ITS Logistics, he brings a wealth of executive experience, including notable roles at XPO Logistics (now RXO) and pivotal contributions to the rapid growth of a Silicon Valley-based technology startup in industrial ecommerce. His valuable experience in tech aligns with ITS Logistics focus on combining innovation with world-class business operations and a level of data quality that customers can fully trust.

“The logistics industry has arrived at a critical intersection of operations and technology,” said Allen. “A combination of our proprietary, cloud-based tech ecosystem; our purpose-built capacity; and our culture of excellence positions the company to thrive amidst everchanging industry conditions.”
