Since the beginning of the pandemic, the logistics and transportation industry has played a critical role in keeping the economy moving and maintaining a level of normalcy in commerce and everyday living,\" said Tom Schmitt, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Forward Air.\nIn its inaugural year, Newsweek's America's Most Trusted Companies list is focused on giving investors, consumers, and prospective employees an insightful tool to help determine which companies deserve their trust. The list of honorees was developed through a thoughtful review of financial information on publicly traded U.S. corporations in 22 industries with $500M or more in annual revenues, as well as consumer feedback. A survey was distributed among 50,000 U.S. residents to determine if they believed that companies treated their customers and employees fairly and if those companies should be considered a smart long-term investment. The result is a list of 400 companies Americans trust the most, ranked by industry.\n\"Being recognized as one of America's Most Trusted Companies showcases that we are really making a difference within our communities and our industry,\" Schmitt said.\nIn addition to being named one of America's Most Trusted Companies, Forward has been recognized with two other honors this year, including Surface Carrier of the Year by the Airforwarders Association (AFA) and The Home Depot Appliance Carrier of the Year by The Home Depot.\nTo learn more about Forward Air, please visit www.forwardaircorp.com.\nAbout Forward Air Corporation\nForward Air Corporation (NASDAQ: FWRD) is a leading asset-light freight and logistics company tha...
