Wilder, Ky., Aug. 29, 2012 — RWI Transportation, an asset-based logistics company providing regional and national truckload, LTL, expedited, and refrigerated warehousing services, has been recognized by Inc. magazine as one of the fastest-growing companies in America. Released just last week, Inc. magazine’s 2012 500/5,000 list is an exclusive ranking of the top 5,000 fastest-growing private companies in the nation, based on percentage revenue growth over a three-year period.

Based in Wilder, Ky., RWI Transportation provides regional and national truckload, LTL, expedited, and refrigerated warehousing services for refrigerated and dry products. RWI is an affiliate of the Castellini Group of Companies, which forms one of the largest distributors of fresh fruits and vegetables in the United States. RWI successfully manages more than 100,000 shipments each year of all types of freight.

Between 2008 and 2011, RWI Transportation achieved 17.6 percent in revenue growth through expansion of market coverage, broadening of transportation service offerings, and providing quality on-time delivery and customer service. In addition, the company has placed specific focus on expanding its carrier network by utilizing private fleets and dedicated carriers in order to meet the needs of its shipping customers in a marketplace short on truck capacity. In June of this year, RWI also expanded into a new 9,000 facility in Fort Thomas, Ky., to accommodate its growing logistics unit. This facility also includes a high-tech training center that is being used to effectively train a rapidly growing workforce.

“RWI Transportation has experienced expansive growth through recent years as a result of our reputation for quality service, flexibility and responsiveness to the marketplace,” said Richard Bauer, executive vice president and general manager of RWI Transportation. “We are extremely proud of the fact that, despite a slowly recovering economic environment, we have been able to achieve such impressive growth, and we’re honored to be recognized for our efforts by Inc. magazine.”
