CHATTANOOGA, TN (PRWEB) March 10, 2015 -- Farm2Fleet - http://farm2fleet.com, a small owner-operator based fleet out of Chattanooga, TN, has been named among North America’s top 20 Best Fleets to Drive For, as selected by the Truckload Carriers Association (TCA) and CarriersEdge, out of Markham, Ontario, Canada. In addition to this recognition, Farm2Fleet has selected Real Time Freight - http://realtimefreight.com as their TMS to support their drivers.
Farm2Fleet will be recognized during the 77th TCA Annual Convention March 8-11 in Kissimmee, FL. The honor also puts the 64-truck fleet in the running to be named as the top fleet to drive for, which will be chosen among the 20 fleets recognized at the convention. An overall winner, in both the large fleet and small fleet categories, will be named during the event.
“We are absolutely ecstatic and humbled with the fact that we got this recognition,” Farm2Fleet Owner Bill Hood said. “It means the world to us, but none of this would happen without the great owner operators and partners in our business. They’re the ones that provide the great service to our customers.”
Hood said the ability to utilize partnerships such as that with the Internet Truckstop Group – http://truckstop.com, specifically Real Time Freight, uDrove and Internet Truckstop, put Farm2Fleet at the forefront to allow owner operators the best opportunity to use top of the line technology in the industry.
“Here at Farm2Fleet, we’re not just sitting back,” Hood said. “In order for us to grow, we have to work with the most cutting edge technology and we have chosen Real Time Freight, Internet Truckstop and uDrove for that platform.”
Overall integration, he said, is the key to success that Farm2Fleet has witnessed.
“With Farm2Fleet we have uDrove ELD mobile solutions integrating with our TMS and fleet management system in Real Time Freight,” Real Time Freight General Manager Trent Broberg said. “These products leverage the capacity, freight and data from our parent company, Internet Truckstop, to automate the entire execution of freight while utilizing public and private load boards. All this technology is aligned to ensure the wheels are moving and Farm2Fleet can make data driven decisions and only focus on the exceptions within their network.”
The partnership with Real Time Freight has given Farm2Fleet a fully integrated transportation fleet management system that integrates data from Internet Truckstop, the mobile platform from uDrove and a private load board.
“For me and our company, our goal is to bring as much quality freight as possible to our number one customer, our drivers,” Hood said. “The bread and butter of our business is our drivers. Our base revenue is our drivers.”
