Logistics & Transportation Association of North America

What Logistics & Transportation Association of North America does

LTNA (Logistics & Transportation Networking Association, also referenced as Logistics & Transportation Association of North America) is a nonprofit member-driven professional networking organization founded in 1922 and based in Collinsville, Illinois (P.O. Box 743). It serves transportation, logistics, and supply chain professionals across the United States and Canada through three free membership tiers — Association/Club, Individual, and Corporate/Institutional/Agency — connecting a federation of 50+ member clubs and reaching 25,000+ recipients via a monthly newsletter. Its flagship engagement mechanism is an annual Education Symposium (the 2026 edition is scheduled for Tacoma, Washington), which rotates annually across major US cities.

The organization's core products are (1) the free Membership Program, (2) the annual conference with tiered sponsorship packages (Platinum $5,000, Gold $2,500, Silver $1,000, Bronze $500) plus conference-specific sponsorships (breakfast $500, lunch $750, happy hour $1,000, app $3,000), (3) optional group-rate liability insurance for non-profit member associations, (4) the Friends of LTNA tax-deductible donation program (minimum $100), and (5) the Troops2Logistics sub-brand (a 501(c)(3) launched December 2, 2019, providing free career services to veterans and service members). LTNA does not operate a proprietary technology platform; its digital infrastructure consists of a Squarespace-hosted website (ltna.org), an email newsletter, a Facebook page, and Zeffy-based conference ticketing. Governance is provided by an all-volunteer Board of Directors, with the President (Brad Reinhardt) as the principal contact.

Revenue is generated entirely through tiered corporate sponsorships, conference event sponsorships, optional liability insurance, and tax-deductible donations — there is no membership fee, no funding rounds, no M&A, and no disclosed financials. The go-to-market is event-driven, anchored by the annual symposium, with the 50+ member-club network providing distributed referral channels across North America. The naming inconsistency between "Logistics & Transportation Networking Association" and "Logistics & Transportation Association of North America" appears to reflect alternate or evolving names for the same entity.

Direct peers

• Delta Nu Alpha Transportation Fraternity: Delta Nu Alpha is a logistics and supply chain educational fraternity with student and professional chapters — already listed as a member club of LTNA. Comparable target audience and networking model, though focused on education/credentialing rather than insurance and events.
• National Defense Transportation Association (NDTA): NDTA is a military and civilian transportation/logistics association with chapters, conferences, and awards programs. Comparable to LTNA as a federation of regional chapters hosting annual conferences for logistics professionals, with a stronger defense/military orientation.
• Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP): CSCMP is the leading global association for supply chain management professionals, offering membership, education, conferences, and networking. It is highly comparable to LTNA in mission (advancing logistics/supply chain professionals through education and networking) but operates at larger scale and broader scope.
• Transportation & Logistics Council (TLC): TLC is an association serving transportation and logistics professionals with a focus on education, regulatory updates, and industry advocacy. Comparable to LTNA in target audience and member-driven service model, but more policy/legal-specialized.

Emerging players

• Association of Transportation Law Professionals (ATLP): ATLP is a specialized association for transportation law and policy professionals. Comparable to LTNA in serving a niche subset of the transportation industry via membership and events, but legally-focused rather than logistics-networking.
• Intelligent Transportation Society of America (ITS America): ITS America advances the development and deployment of intelligent transportation technologies. It overlaps with LTNA's transportation audience but is technology-and-policy focused rather than general networking.

Broad incumbents

• National Association of Small Trucking Companies (NASTC): NASTC serves small trucking companies with discounts, advocacy, and member services. Comparable to LTNA as an association providing member benefits to transportation organizations, though narrowly focused on trucking operators.
• American Association of Exporters and Importers (AAEI): AAEI is a trade association for US companies engaged in international trade, including logistics and freight forwarding. Comparable to LTNA in serving trade/logistics professionals with advocacy and education, but focused on customs/trade policy.
• American Trucking Associations (ATA): ATA is the largest national trade association for the US trucking industry, advocating for carriers, suppliers, and drivers. It is comparable to LTNA as a membership-based industry association serving transportation professionals, though ATA is significantly larger and policy-focused rather than networking-led.

Regional players

• Canadian Transportation & Logistics (CTL) Association: CTL is a Canadian-focused association serving transportation and logistics professionals with networking and education events. Comparable in mission to LTNA but operates primarily in Canada rather than across North America.
