FRANCHISE OWNER SPOTLIGHT

Jason Eckhardt, Franchise Owner
BlueGrace^® Logistics - New Jersey

"More control over my life and future"

Jason Eckhardt had steadily worked his way up the ladder in the transportation industry with various companies in the East, and had his own small parcel shipping company franchise when a friend introduced him to BlueGrace Logistics.

Looking back at the past year Eckhardt says this has been his best move yet. "I've been in the transportation industry for 10-plus years," said Eckhardt, "and worked with some fine people and organizations. But I have absolutely no doubt that joining the BlueGrace team was the right choice for me at this stage in my career."

He said that the chance to essentially be his own boss, backed by the BlueGrace services, technology and brand, and to be part of a company that continued to grow while other industry competitors seemed to have leveled off, was exciting.

"BlueGrace has grown steadily since day one," said Eckhardt, "and continues to expand its services, staff, carriers, and customer base with competitive pricing, first rate customer service and the best transportation management system I've ever seen. Being part of this organization, and part of this opportunity to grow, has given me more control over my life and my future than ever before. I look forward to coming to work each day, seeing what I can accomplish and how I can continually improve the service I offer my customers."

Jason Eckhardt has freight management experience which is helpful, but not required as a BlueGrace franchise owner. BlueGrace offers a week-long comprehensive training program taught by leaders in the logistics industry that provides you with everything you need to know about the shipping and freight business. On-going training is also offered throughout the year through online education and conferences. Beyond training, our dedicated support representatives are available to help you every step of the way, so you always have a knowledgeable team behind you.
