At Logistics Plus, we celebrate the multi-national diversity of our employees, customers, friends and family throughout the year – and especially throughout the holiday season. It is, therefore, appropriate that we take a quick look at different ways to greet coworkers, friends and family in their native language (and put smiles on their faces by trying).
Use the infographic below (from Pixaal.com) to learn how to say “Merry Christmas” and “Santa Claus” in other countries.

It’s no secret that the holiday season has increasingly become a season for shopping. But with the development of technology, more shoppers are turning to online retailers to find the perfect gift for their loved ones, putting even more pressure on shipping companies. The infographic below shows just how busy carriers like UPS, USPS and FedEx were during the 2009 and 2010 holidays. Just imagine what these numbers must look like today!

It has been another great year, and I would like to thank all of our customers and partners for playing an important role in the growth and success of Logistics Plus. This year, your loyalty and support have helped us to be recognized as: the non-manufacturing Employer of the Year in northwestern PA (by the DevelopErie economic development agency); a top 50 freight brokerage firm (by Transport Topics magazine); and a 2015 Great Supply Chain Partner (by SupplyChainBrain magazine). It has also allowed us to give back to the community through our support of the United Way, the American Heart Association, and many other charitable organizations.
In North America, we continue to negotiate great transportation rates on your behalf, and we expanded our network to include even more reputable freight carriers and agents. With 24 locations across the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, we continue to provide best-in-class LTL, truckload, and freight forwarding services. We also opened a new general purpose foreign trade zone (FTZ) warehouse in Erie, PA; and we moved our Dallas/Fort Worth, TX warehouse to a larger facility – also with activated FTZ status.
On the global front, we continue to open new offices in strategic locations such as Bahrain, Egypt, and UAE, giving us over 20 more offices in 16 additional countries around the world. Our international staff continues to do an amazing job handling global shipments and unique project cargo from start-to-finish, and doing the things that other logistics companies either can’t or won’t do. As a licensed customs broker with a fully-staffed global trade compliance department, we are well-suited to help customers with all of their import and export shipping needs in the years to come.
If you worked with Logistics Plus this past year, on behalf of all our employees – thank you for your business! If we haven’t yet worked with you, I welcome the opportunity to do so in 2016. As you’ll see in the video above, we have a diverse mix of talented and caring people here at Logistics Plus – people who are creative, resourceful and willing to work 24/7/365 to help our customers be successful in all aspects of shipping and logistics. That’s how we put the “plus” in Logistics Plus.
Best wishes for a joyous holiday season and a wonderful New Year!
Warm regards,

As one of the most observed holidays in the world, Christmas has become a time for exchanging gifts, attending parties and putting up Christmas trees. Each Christmas season, Americans alone buy more than 30 million real and artificial trees. In 2010, the United Arab Emirates spent more than $11 million to break the record for the most expensively decorated tree in the world.
Take a look at the infographic below (from History.com) for more fun facts about Christmas.

India is celebrating its 69th year of Independence this month. India became an independent nation on August 15, 1947. Independence Day in India is a day when Indian people pay homage to their leaders and those who fought for India’s freedom in the past. The period leading up to Independence Day is a time when major government buildings are illuminated with strings of lights and the tricolor flutters from homes and other buildings. In honor of this great holiday, the Logistics Plus (LP) employees in New Delhi, pictured below, joined in on the celebrations.
