LinkEx, a logistics company that Saia acquired in 2015, is rebranding.
The 3PL shifted its name to Saia Logistics last week to create better brand unity. No changes to service, ownership, or day-to-day operations are occurring, a news release said.
“Moving forward, operating as Saia Logistics simply reflects how closely the Saia freight and LinkEx teams work together, bringing the carrier’s ever-expanding less-than-truckload network (LTL) and growing logistics capabilities under one name,” the announcement said.
The shift is intended to help improve customer experience by better connecting freight and logistics offerings, the business said in a LinkedIn message.
“Unifying our logistics services fully under the Saia brand helps customers better understand the breadth of solutions we offer,” Saia EVP and Chief Customer Officer Ray Ramu said in the release.
LinkEx, which was formed in 2002 in Dallas, also has offices in Atlanta and Guadalajara, Mexico, its website notes. Its services include domestic ground and air transportation, contract logistics, expedited services, international services and warehousing.
Executives noted in an October earnings call that its adaptability and long-term investments are readying the business for future potential.
While Saia has opened 39 terminals from 2022 through Q3 2025, Saia isn’t just looking at expansion, the company noted during the earnings call.
“When we can solve more problems, we also get business in our existing markets,” Saia EVP and CFO Matthew Batteh said. “We're seeing that now. And that just gets better when the freight environment gets better, too.”
