The Independent Steel Alliance (ISA) has signed a transportation partnership agreement with PLS Logistics Services (PLS), a leading logistics management services provider. This agreement will allow ISA’s purchasing members to receive freight transportation services at competitive rates while earning loyalty rebates in exchange for selecting PLS as their preferred carrier.
Said ISA Executive Director Chris Casey, “Traditionally, our rebar fabricator members place an order with a supplier and simply use the carrier designated by the supplier. With the PLS partnership, ISA Members will be able to shop the supplier’s freight rates with PLS and receive competitive pricing. When our Members select PLS as their freight carrier, PLS will pay a rebate to the Members. It’s a win-win for both parties.”
“In today’s competitive environment, cost effective transportation solutions are critical to long-term survival, and PLS is pleased to further enhance the competitive position of ISA Members,” said Greg Burns, President and CEO of PLS Logistics Services. “The fabricated rebar industry is a freight-intensive one, and this agreement enables ISA Member companies to realize significant cost savings by leveraging the buying power of the largest flatbed network in North America.”
