Knight Transportation Inc. (NYSE: KNX) announced the official opening of its 29th service center. This new service center is located in Chicago and will be operated by Knight Brokerage, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Knight Transportation Inc. The Chicago center represents the fourth brokerage service center in our growing nationwide network. Knight Brokerage was created in mid-2005 and complements our existing network of 22 dry van and three refrigerated service centers. Chairman and CEO Kevin Knight had the following comments:
"We are excited with our expanded service offering in the Chicago market through the opening of this new brokerage center, which joins our existing dry van center already in that market. The development of our brokerage model strengthens our relationships with our customers, giving them more options. It is also a less capital-intensive way for us to grow our business. We are excited about the team that we have assembled to establish our brokerage presence in one of the nation's most important freight markets. This expansion represents our continued progression as we build our brand as the premier national carrier, providing local service to the markets we serve." Source: Press Release
