About Greenbush Logistics
Greenbush Logistics was born out of service to the parent company, Great Southern Wood Preserving, Incorporated (the largest distributor of pressure-treated pine in the nation). Greenbush Logistics cut its teeth in the time-and-service-sensitive freight management industry. The experience in helping Great Southern's customers thrive on Just-in-Time inventory management quickly developed Greenbush's know-how of managing a fleet of trucks across a large geographic region. This knowledge has helped us cultivate a reputation as a trusted freight management source.
Because Greenbush Logistics is a family-owned business, our employees are much more than just a number. They're more like family. That's why we take great pride in seeing our employees (and their families) succeed in life. Every day, members of the GLI family come to work with one goal: to exceed customer expectations. By providing timely deliveries and unparalleled service, we strengthen a relationship that will grow in the years to come.
