booming market
Atlanta, Georgia March 11, 2019 – Alabama Motor Express, a powerful trucking and logistics company, opened a new sales office in Atlanta, Georgia. This new location broadens AMX’s current footprint in Freight Alley and puts the company in the center of a major United States distribution hub where Home Depot and Delta Airlines are among the shippers located there, as well as many leading carriers.
The company’s expansion was driven by its customers, leading to the growth of its sales efforts and commitment to maintaining one of the highest retention rates in the industry.
