Trinity Logistics, a leading provider of logistics and supply chain solutions, shares earned recognition as a Top Company for Women in Transportation by the Women In Trucking Association for its fifth consecutive year. 

The Women In Trucking Association (WIT) is a non-profit organization with the mission to encourage the employment of women in the trucking industry, promote their accomplishments, and minimize obstacles faced by women working in the industry. 

Every year, WIT looks for companies with several characteristics that distinguish the companies featured on the list. These characteristics include company cultures that support gender diversity, flexible hours and work requirements, competitive compensation and benefits, training and continued education opportunities, career advancement, and other factors. 

 “We are honored to be recognized by WIT as a Top Company for Women to Work for in Transportation for a fifth year,” said Megan Morgan, VP of People Operations. “We are committed to creating a workplace where everyone feels welcome, respected, and valued, regardless of their gender. This award is a testament to that, and we are proud to be a workplace where women can thrive.”

Trinity is proud to be a company that’s known for its culture and a place where Team Members can feel valued and supported. Trinity has several initiatives in place to support women in the workplace, including:

• Quality benefits for themselves and their families
• Continued education opportunities to help support career growth
• Ample paid time off and remote/hybrid positions available to encourage work-life balance
• Competitive compensation
• A company culture that is positive and family-friendly

To date, Trinity employs over 400 Team Members across seven Regional Service Centers, with 49.5 percent of them women, and 19.6 percent of those women holding a management or leadership role, including our current President, Sarah Ruffcorn. Ruffcorn also serves as co-chair on the Women in Logistics Committee with the Transportation Intermediaries Association (TIA) and recently received the 2023 Women in Supply Chain Award by Food Logistics and Supply & Demand Chain Executive.

Trinity would like to extend their congratulations to all companies that earned recognition on the list. 

“Working for a company like Trinity Logistics has been the best decision I’ve made in my professional career,” said Ashley Lindsey, Director of Sales at the Kansas City Trinity Logistics location. “Several companies talk about having a positive culture, but the Team Members of Trinity LIVE it day in and day out, from the top, all the way to the bottom. Starting out at Trinity in an entry role, there was never a day that I didn’t receive support from our amazing leadership Team and multiple departments when a need arose. They listen, offer feedback, and want to see all Team Members succeed. Seeing the women holding leadership positions is so empowering and pushes me to be the best I can be.”

Trinity Logistics, a leading third-party logistics (3PL) provider, is proud to share that the company’s President, Sarah Ruffcorn, is a recipient of the 2023 Women in Supply Chain award. 

Selected to receive the award by Food Logistics and Supply & Demand Chain Executive, this recognition honors female supply chain leaders and executives whose accomplishments, mentorship, and examples set a foundation for women in all levels of a company’s supply chain network. This year, there were over 400 submissions, the highest number of applications ever submitted. 

“I am both honored and humbled to receive the 2023 Women in Supply Chain award,” said Sarah. “I have immense gratitude for all the coaching and support I’ve received throughout my years at Trinity. Thank you to the leaders and mentors I’ve worked with who have challenged and empowered me, to my Team who have trusted and supported me, and to my husband and family who have given me unwavering support and encouragement to live out my God-given gifts. Thank you all!”

Sarah has a 20-year tenure at Trinity Logistics, having started as a dispatcher in Carrier Sales and holding several leadership roles before being named President in 2019.

Sarah also makes waves within the industry by serving on the Transportation Intermediaries Association (TIA) Board of Directors, as well as a co-chair of its Women in Logistics Committee, helping engage and promote women within the logistics industry. 

“I’ve had the privilege to work alongside Sarah Ruffcorn for the past seventeen years and would describe her as a visionary and strategic leader with a gracious, compassionate, and humble heart,” said Doug Potvin, Chief Financial Officer at Trinity Logistics. “With these qualities, she’s excelled as a dynamic leader, not only for Trinity Logistics but in the logistics industry as well, leaving a legacy for future women in the industry to model. Sarah, in all that she does, embodies all the company’s core values and is a worthy recipient of the 2023 Women in Supply Chain Award.”

While the supply chain industry is excelling at incorporating more women in the supply chain, there’s still more work to be done. That’s why four years ago, Supply & Demand Chain Executive launched this award to champion women who are making a difference and thank them for their inspiration to possible leaders.

“Sarah is a servant leader through and through,” said Anne Reinke, President and CEO of TIA. “She focuses on her team, and how to help them succeed, while still steering the ship of a large and complex logistics company.  We at TIA are lucky to have her on our Board of Directors, and this recognition of her excellence is well-deserved.”
