"James is a proven leader whose experience and expertise have been fundamental to RK's growth and customer success," said Joe MacLean, RK's chairman, chief executive officer and president. "This promotion recognizes his accomplishments, and his potential to drive further growth across industries and customers we serve in California, Michigan, Texas, New York and Arizona, as well as expansion into new and emerging industries that require innovative logistics solutions."

Founded in Silicon Valley over 30 years ago, RK specializes in high-performance, zero fault tolerance logistics for industries including industrial, semiconductor and automotive manufacturing, EV/lithium-ion battery storage and transport, hazardous materials and consumer goods. The company also provides retail product inventory management, store-door fulfillment, eCommerce order fulfillment, reverse logistics and dedicated/specialty transportation services.

Mr. Bryant has some 16 years of experience in logistics and supply chain management. He was previously RK's vice president of California operations, overseeing a dozen local facilities. He also was primarily responsible for the LAM Research account, a complex logistics support program that integrates multiple logistics services and sites. This solution provides LAM operations with inbound product receipt and put away, warehousing, inventory and order management, local freight transportation, manufacturing line-side fulfillment and spares/emergency field parts support.

Mr. Bryant joined RK in 2013, and previously was director of logistics for a grocery store chain. Following a six-month 3PL training regimen, he was promoted to site manager, subsequently advancing through increasingly responsible management positions, successfully leading some of RK's most demanding projects. While working for RK, he took advantage of the company's tuition reimbursement program to earn a master's in supply chain management and operations from Michigan State University. He subsequently earned his Six Sigma Green Belt from the University of California-Los Angeles. He is certified as the designated representative for RK's license as a third-party logistics provider from the California Board of Pharmacy to handle pharmaceutical products.

Mr. Bryant succeeds Rock Magnan, a 40-year logistics industry veteran who joined RK Logistics in 2011, and recently retired after more than eight years as RK's president.
