Roadrunner, a nationwide less-than-truckload (LTL) carrier specializing in long-haul metro-to-metro shipping, has been recognized in Newsweek’s inaugural list of America's Most Trustworthy Companies 2022.

“We have come a long way,” said Roadrunner President Frank Hurst. “Trust is the pillar of any business, and we are proud that we are being recognized for the work we have done to rebuild it with our customers and business partners. These are the results a service-oriented culture produces.”

Newsweek partnered with Statista to evaluate public companies with over $500 million in revenue through an extensive survey of approximately 50,000 residents and 110,000 evaluations. Four hundred companies were chosen on criteria including investor, customer and employee trust for a holistic approach.

“Our Roadrunner team has spent tremendous energy and effort for the past two years in building trust with our customers, our business partners and our employees,” said Roadrunner Executive Chairman of the Board Chris Jamroz. “This starts with our culture of governance and internal controls. We prioritize safety and regulatory compliance, which is a core focus throughout our company. We are humbled to be recognized so quickly for these changes and we will continue to focus on delivering positive results.”
