Dear Valued Jevic Customer: I regret to inform you that Jevic Transportation Inc. will be discontinuing operations. The current high fuel costs, economic downturn, increasing insurance costs, and tightening credit markets have made this decision necessary. Jevic will stop providing pickup service effective Monday 5/19/08. However, we will continue operating to deliver all freight within our system prior to closing.
Operations and Customer Service:
Jevic will not be accepting pickup requests after Friday 5/16/08 and the web and EDI pickup functions will be disabled.
We will continue to provide Customer Service through the wind down period. We ask that you please utilize the automated voice response system as much as possible as the number of calls is expected to be high and there will be longer hold times.
The Jevic website will remain active and will be updated during the period as well and that should be your primary point of contact for tracing and needed documentation.
We greatly appreciate the loyalty of our many Jevic customers. It has been our pleasure to provide solutions to your transportation needs over these many years. We are committed to providing the prompt delivery of your shipments in our system and professional customer service for all your needs during this process. Thank you again.
Sincerely,
David H. Gorman

Truckload and less-than-truckload carrier Jevic Transportation said Monday it is discontinuing operations, due to soaring fuel costs and a weak economy.

"The current high fuel costs, economic downturn, increasing insurance costs, and tightening credit markets have made this decision necessary," Chief Executive Officer David Gorman wrote in a note to customers on the company's Web site.
Jevic will stop providing pickup service effective Monday, but will continue delivering all freight within its system prior to closing, Gorman wrote.
Jevic, a former unit of SCS Transportation (now Saia Inc.), was sold to private-equity firm Sun Capital Partners in 2006 for $40 million.
Jevic was ranked No. 71 in last year's Transport Topics 100 listing of U.S. and Canadian for-hire carriers.
