    I got wind that Greatwide Dedicated located in Winter Haven Fl. and another location is closing end of March. I worked for them once when they were Southpoint and after Greatwide took over. If true seems as I left in time. Any info as to this please let men know. Scotty:

    Greatwide was doing work for Velda Farms in Winter Haven a couple of years ago, did they lose that account. The news article only mentioned Public Super Market. But when I was hauling milk into Velda, Greatwide was pretty big there.

    The "other location" in Winter Haven that they are keeping would more than likely be the Wal-Mart Grocery distribution center. Was just there the other week, and Greatwide was the house carrier.
