This year, for the first time, C.H. Robinson is recognizing North American truckload carriers with the Key Carrier of the Year Award. Road Hogg Transport LLC is the recipient of the award in the 2-10 truck size segment. The company was nominated by their C.H. Robinson carrier representative for the new awards.

Road Hogg Transport LLC, as well as the other 2-10 truck fleets with Key status in the program, have exceptional service levels, have demonstrated efficiencies through automation and have established relationships with dedicated carrier representatives.

The company was awarded because of their commitment to growth and expanding their service offerings to meet the needs of C.H. Robinson. “Mike is always looking to collaborate, with our business, it is refreshing to have him be open to new opportunities,” said Jared Beery, C.H. Robinson carrier representative. “We met over dinner and he took a chance working with us. It has been nothing but a positive experience.”

Road Hogg Transport LLC has six trucks, and are headquartered in Hilliard, OH. The company is relatively new – only in business for three and a half years. “C.H. Robinson is who I am with - the service and treatment I get from them makes me want to stay, even if other opportunities come up,” said Mike Roberts, owner of Road Hogg Transport LLC. “C.H. Robinson provides me solutions to help me manage my small business.”
