Our Team
Adam Smith
Adam was born and raised in Sioux Falls, SD and attended the University of South Dakota. Shortly after graduation, Adam found he loved logistics and has worked in this field for the last 7 years.
“Relationships are the key to success in the logistics industry, I personally enjoy the daily task of developing and growing mutually beneficial relationships with both customers and carriers. It is a fast-paced environment that presents new challenges and opportunities every day.”
In his spare time, Adam loves music and enjoys attending concerts and playing the guitar and drums… poorly. He enjoys the lake and spends most of his weekends in the summer out on the water with friends.
