More than 150 participants traveled from 38 states and two Canadian provinces to attend the event, which focused on providing opportunities for capacity partners to collaborate on future business opportunities and recognizing the top network performers for service excellence.

The two-day event included a VIP guided tour of AT&T Cowboys Stadium and an opportunity for team introductions and breakout sessions at one of ABF Logistics’ offices located in Wichita Falls, Texas.

“In years to come, we see this conference and the associated quality award presentation growing across our various capacity networks that help us serve a variety of customers across the ArcBest enterprise,” Turner said. “This broader inclusion demonstrates the conference theme of ‘connecting through collaboration’ as we focus on new ways to provide seamless solutions to our customers.”
