ADC also provides support services to the small parcel shipping industry and to the United States Postal Service shipping and tracking over 2.5 million packages to local post offices at some 650 zip codes annually. ADC’s fleet is supported by 413,000 sq. ft of warehouse and cross dock space in
Arizona,
Colorado,
Idaho,
New Mexico,
Texas and
Utah.
According to Kenco Logistic Services, LLC Chairman and CEO Gary Mayfield, “We welcome ADC to the Kenco family of companies, and look forward to a mutually productive relationship. We are delighted to further diversify our services with the unique solutions offered by ADC.”
“With more than 400 power units and 23 million square feet of warehouse space already under Kenco’s management,” Mr. Mayfield continued, “ the addition of ADC’s rolling stock and facilities throughout the Intermountain region now positions us to serve the logistics needs of customers across the United States and Canada.”
David J. Pettit, ADC President and CEO said, “ADC's business encompasses many of the fine traditional core strengths of Kenco, such as warehousing and distribution. ADC is also very pleased to bring a strong tradition of service excellence for retail pool distribution for the apparel, book and specialty retail chains, pharmaceutical stores, and technical and delivery support for the small package shipping industry in our 9 state region. With Kenco's reputation for delivering on client expectations, we expect this to be an ideal strategic move for both organizations."
