What PC Logistics does

PC Logistics, LLC is a privately held, asset-based Midwest trucking and logistics provider founded in 2010 as a spin-off from Patrick Cudahy (formerly Patrick Cudahy Express). The company operates a fleet of more than 45 tractors and 110 trailers and a 44,000 square-foot food-grade warehouse in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, complemented by in-house brokerage and LTL capability. Its headquarters are in Oak Creek, WI, with four additional operating locations in Appleton, WI and Lake Station, Remington, and Lafayette, IN, supporting regular service across Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio.

The company's service platform spans six core lines: Dedicated Fleet Services, Ground Expedite, Temperature Controlled (reefer) transportation, Truckload, Brokerage and LTL, and Warehousing, Fulfillment and Distribution. Dedicated Fleet Services — where customers contract one to 100 dedicated trucks — is positioned as the anchor offering. Underlying technology consists of standard logistics stack components: GPS satellite tracking (accurate to one-tenth of a mile), Track and Trace with auto-email notifications, EDI interfacing for order tendering, onboard satellite communications, and a warehouse management system that exposes inventory to customers online. A next-generation brokerage platform links the company to thousands of pre-qualified carriers, and through its membership in a national carrier alliance it gains access to over 15,000 vehicles for capacity flex.

Revenue is generated primarily via per-shipment transaction fees on truckload, LTL, expedited, and temperature-controlled moves, plus managed-services recurring revenue on dedicated fleet contracts and warehousing/fulfillment engagements. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market is sales-led and regional, relying on direct quote requests through the company website, supported by a carrier-network distribution channel for capacity overflow. Customers are concentrated in Food & Beverage, Consumer Packaged Goods, Retail Goods, and to a lesser extent Industrial and Technology verticals — segments with predictable freight volumes and recurring replenishment cycles.
