Our Mission Statement: Expeditors sets the standard for excellence in global logistics through total commitment to quality in people and customer service, with superior financial results. Expeditors is much more than getting a piece of freight from one point to another. The Council of Logistics Management defines logistics as that part of the supply chain process that plans, implements, and controls the efficient, effective flow and storage of goods, services, and related information from the point of origin to the point of consumption in order to meet customers' requirements. Our job is to make sure that from raw material to finished goods sitting on the retail shelf, we provide the critical services and information necessary to give our clients a competitive advantage in the management of their supply chains.
