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.
