ODW Logistics, Inc. is now an Operating Authority in California, allowing their asset-based transportation group Dist-Trans Co., to bring more of ODW’s capabilities to the West Coast and better serve clients nationwide.

    The new expansion into California allows Dist-Trans Co. to provide current and future clients with an asset-based solution for their transportation needs.

    Dist-Trans Co. has provided customized transportation services since 1980, when it was created as an extension of the services offered by parent company ODW Logistics. Dist-Trans Co. offers the highest service levels with dedicated representatives who have supply chain experience and are familiar with industry demands.
