Trinity Logistics, a leading third-party logistics provider (3PL), is thrilled to announce that President Sarah Ruffcorn has been named the recipient of the prestigious Distinguished Woman in Logistics Award (DWLA) by the Women in Trucking Association (WIT). The announcement took place during the Transportation Intermediaries Association (TIA) Conference held in Phoenix, Arizona, April 10 -13, 2024.
The DWLA is an annual award that recognizes outstanding women in various logistics fields and underscores their significant contributions to an industry traditionally dominated by men. The winner is chosen by a selection committee comprised of representatives from WIT, Truckstop, and the TIA. Sarah’s win highlights her exceptional leadership and dedication to driving positive change within the logistics sector.
“I am truly honored to receive this award,” said Ruffcorn. “This recognition is a testament to the incredible Team I am honored to work with, the influential leaders, mentors, and family that have challenged and encouraged me. This is a great reminder of the power of collaboration and empowerment to drive positive change. I hope this award inspires others to pursue their goals and aspirations!”
With over two decades of experience at Trinity Logistics, Ruffcorn’s journey exemplifies her unwavering commitment and expertise.

Trinity Logistics, a leading third-party logistics provider (3PL), is proud to announce that it has been honored with the prestigious “Fiercely Good Award” by BlueTriton Brands Inc., a prominent player in the beverage industry. The award was presented to Trinity Logistics during BlueTriton’s Annual Carrier Meeting, which saw the attendance of over 150 carrier and 3PL companies.
“The BlueTriton Brands, Inc. 2023 ‘Fiercely Good Award’ is to recognize our colleagues that embrace being fearless business owners, boldly innovative, deeply committed, and fiercely good,” said Tilde Zimmerman, Transportation Procurement Director at BlueTriton Brands, Inc. “In 2023, Trinity Logistics went above and beyond what was asked or expected of them. We like to appreciate and recognize the efforts of those who collectively make us better. Thank you for being FIERCELY GOOD, Trinity Logistics Team!”
Zimmerman specifically recognized Trinity Logistics for its exceptional commitment to service and its invaluable contribution to a community initiative spearheaded by BlueTriton Brands, Inc. Trinity Logistics played a pivotal role in facilitating the delivery of a much-needed donation of water by BlueTriton to support a local high school football showcase in Broward County, Florida, demonstrating its dedication to making a positive impact beyond the realm of logistics.

Their presence underscored Trinity’s commitment to fostering strong partnerships and delivering exceptional service.
