What We Do
Syfan Transport and Syfan Logistics together represent a successful high-tech, multi-million dollar corporation, but remain a family business at heart - and an old-fashioned American success story. With close to a half century of experience in trucking and logistics, the Syfan family has been in the transportation business for a very long time. As an asset-based transportation company, Syfan Transport provides customers with the flexibility and reliability they are looking for. The Syfan fleet includes a wide assortment of refrigerated, flatbed and dry vans to meet virtually every customer need. For shippers faced with a sudden spike in shipping volume or the occasional spot load, Syfan Logistics offers its third-party brokerage services to fill those emergency gaps. While we supplement our private fleet with third-party carriers, we don’t take a back seat to safeguarding your loads. We are so confident in our ability to deliver that we back all of our customers’ shipments with Primary Cargo Insurance so you never have to deal with a middle man. We support all of this 24 hours a day with live on-site service, seven days a week to provide accurate updates on the status of your shipments. In 2017, our company has focused on being “Ready, Willing, & Able” in regard to new federal requirements for Electronic Logging Devices (ELD) and safer food transport under the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). For both rule changes, Syfan will be ready well ahead of this year’s deadlines. The sooner the better, because working with an ELD-compliant carrier in the future will be just as important as protecting shipments with cargo insurance. Our story is far from over, because the formula continues to work with a growing staff of over 140 professionals and a successful partnership with hundreds of customers and thousands of carrier partners. The only thing missing now, is your partnership.
