Des Moines, IA (February 4, 2021) – Ruan is excited to announce the addition of Jon Larson to its sales team as of Director of Dedicated Contract Transportation. Jon will serve Ruan’s southwestern territory including Idaho, Utah, Nevada, New Mexico, and Arizona.

Larson joins Ruan with a decade of experience in the transportation and logistics industry, most recently as an account manager with Swift Transportation Refrigerated in Phoenix, AZ. Larson will work out of Ruan’s Phoenix facility, which serves customers throughout the region.

“We are eager to expand our footprint in the southwest. Jon’s transportation and logistics experience and knowledge of the area will serve our customers well. Our Phoenix operation is able to onboard customers quickly with available professional drivers, equipment, and an on-site expert to guide new customers through the seamless transition process,” said Ruan Senior Vice President of Sales Roger Mason.

Ruan currently serves several customers at the Phoenix location including Safelite AutoGlass, Niagara Bottling, Flowers Foods, TJX, Fry’s, Holsum Bakery, and Freeport McMoRan.
