Supporting Growth for a Local Family Farm Food Supplier
Focus: Customer Service at Delivery
This food supplier sources high-quality produce from local family farms all across the US.

They decided to consolidate their New England logistics needs with Tighe because of our reputation for taking care of ‘our customer’s customer’ especially at the point of delivery.
