Broad incumbents

• Werner Enterprises: One of the largest truckload carriers in the U.S., offering dedicated, one-way TL, and logistics services across all 48 states. Directly comparable operating model to Rose's Transport at significantly larger scale, serving similar enterprise shippers including trailer manufacturers.
• Knight-Swift Transportation: Large diversified truckload carrier operating a nationwide fleet across dry van, refrigerated, flatbed, and dedicated. Directly comparable to Rose's core TL business but with the scale, asset base, and broker network that Rose's lacks.
• Schneider National: Large multi-modal carrier with a sizeable truckload and dedicated fleet serving many of the same enterprise shippers Rose's targets, including large OEMs. Broader portfolio (intermodal, logistics, brokerage) but directly comparable TL operations.
• J.B. Hunt Transport Services: Major asset-based carrier with a large dedicated and truckload division serving nationwide enterprise contracts. Competes for the same trailer manufacturer and large-shipper freight that Rose's moves.
• CRST International: Large flatbed, dedicated, and expedited carrier with nationwide operations. Comparable in dedicated and specialized-haul capabilities, though materially larger and more diversified than Rose's.

Direct peers

• Heartland Express: Asset-based irregular route truckload carrier serving all 48 states with a comparable asset-light, customer-service-driven operating philosophy. Closest mid-market direct peer in business model and customer orientation.
• Marten Transport: Mid-sized truckload carrier operating refrigerated, dedicated, and dry van freight across the U.S. Comparable scale and operational footprint, with similar focus on dedicated, long-tenured shipper relationships.
• USA Truck: Mid-market truckload and dedicated carrier operating across the U.S. with comparable size, customer mix, and reliance on enterprise shippers. Most structurally similar peer in scale and service profile.
