Walmart won't Go away but I bet the private fleet is on its way out the door... They are gonna end up going to the same set up target has... They will have outside carriers exclusively hauling their trailers to their stores..

I do believe management wants to get rid of us, but these constant errors by their “chosen” are not helping. -
One Target has never been any where near the efficiency on supply chain. Private fleet and its flexibility is a key to that.
Two we are actively taking over certain buildings that used to be outside carriers. We are cheaper than any option presented that was deemed reliable. Walmart requires 99.5% on time delivery.
Three They love show ponies for PR purposes. Winning ATA safest fleet consistently, our work with Wreaths Across America, No Zone and teen driving, and having had the Grand champion in TDC for 5 of the last 10 years is good pr. Also membership in the ATA allows them leverage for the direction of the ATA.
But like I have kept saying, the checks cash, the BS is minimal compared to most, and I get the respect I demand. -

I disagree with that business model. If we are going to take on Aldi and Lytl(spelling?) and Publix, Meijer etc etc we better present a unified front across all of our stores.
