Masao Nishi Carriers Quotations

Carriers that do enough business with us could drop a full trailer, pick up one of their empty trailers, and go. They don't even have to wait two hours; they can do it in 15 minutes.

The problems are with the smaller carriers, which SYSCO relies on heavily. Small carriers don't have a lot of this information readily available. We ask them to enter the data in our Internet-based transportation management system, but they're not always good about doing it.

Even with the capacity imbalance, carriers are still going out of business.
