Menlo Logistics, the US$1.7 billion global logistics and supply chain management subsidiary of Con-way Inc. (NYSE:CNW), today announced that Gartner, Inc., has positioned Menlo as a “Leader” in its 2015 Magic Quadrant for Third-Party Logistics, North America.

Menlo Logistics was one of 19 third-party logistics companies that met the criteria to be evaluated within the Gartner North America 3PL Magic Quadrant. Menlo was placed in the coveted Leaders’ quadrant, based on its completeness of vision and ability to execute. The full report is available to read here.

“To be positioned in the Leaders’ box of the Magic Quadrant is undeniably a milestone for Menlo.” said Robert L. Bianco Jr., president of Menlo Logistics. “We believe it reaffirms our culture of Lean continuous improvement, our commitment to innovation and our focus on high-performing supply chain management solutions which deliver measured and validated results for customers.”

According to Gartner, “The North American logistics industry providers allow customers to outsource, either completely or partially, their logistics operations to external specialists. Many companies view logistics outsourcing as an effective strategy primarily to reduce costs, but more and more customers seek service improvements at the same time. Dramatic changes in the business conditions over the years have enhanced the significance of supply chain management and logistics.”
