Fresh Del Monte’s Tricont Logistics Sees 200% Growth in Three Years, Rebrands with New Website

The company’s new brand and website launch as it expands as a third-party logistics provider.

Tricont Trucking & Logistics, the inland logistics arm of Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc., announced today a new website and branding to enhance its customer experience and broaden its customer base. This comes as the company has seen expansion over the last few years due to providing complete third-party logistics services.

Capitalizing on more than two decades of experience, Tricont is an expert in urgent and complex supply chains in a cold chain environment across North America, which stems from years of handling Fresh Del Monte’s produce, combined with its vast network and technology-driven solutions offering customers a trusted logistics partner. While Tricont’s biggest customer is Fresh Del Monte, the logistics company has been offering more and more of its top-tier services to others in need of varied logistics solutions.

“Fresh Del Monte has been relying on Tricont Trucking and Tricont Logistics for years, with great success, to move fresh produce on time and in full,” said Mohammad Abu-Ghazaleh, Fresh Del Monte’s Chairman and CEO. “In today’s world where logistics and shipping disruptions abound, we’re looking forward to offering our solutions to more people, giving them access to our robust, reliable distribution and logistics network. Tricont’s inland services complement our third-party ocean freight services provided by Network Shipping. Both serve as an example of our commitment toward asset optimization.”

With seventy percent of all goods in the US moved by trucks, equal to a $800m+ economic value, and the consumer shift to ecommerce, the trucking and logistics industry is poised to thrive — over the next five years, the long-haul transport market is expected to grow by more than 4%.

Tricont provides intermodal, warehousing, managed services, and business analytics, as well as refrigerated and ambient LTL distribution, last-mile delivery, and a dedicated contract carriage. The company serves North America with more than 30 distribution centers, almost 200 tractors, more than 10,000 reefer containers, and nearly 2,000 chassis—with a 95% on-time delivery rate.

“This is an exciting time for our business. As the logistics industry expands, we want to grow with it and become a logistics powerhouse in our own rite. We are now in a better position to achieve this with the new website and brand, as customers and drivers can more readily find information on our website,” said Rob Savage, President of Tricont Trucking and Tricont Logistics.

Recently, Mann Packing, Fresh Del Monte’s vegetable arm, began to leverage Tricont’s services as it expanded to the east coast of the U.S. Mann’s will now use Tricont’s North-Carolina based distribution center and trucking services to serve more customers. This partnership allows Mann’s to have a vertically integrated supply chain, so customers receive products that have a more optimized shelf life at a lower cost.
