02/22/2024
North American freight brokerage and third-party logistics firm Total Quality Logistics plans to establish operations in Little Rock, Arkansas. The project is expected to create 80 jobs.

The company has eased over 5,000 square feet at 1701 Center View Drive.

"We’ve been in Arkansas for over a decade and are proud to expand our footprint and deepen our commitment to the state with an office in the Little Rock community,” TQL President Kerry Byrne said. “We chose Little Rock for many reasons, including its thriving local economy and great pool of talent. We’re excited to be part of the state’s largest municipality.”

TQL is one of the largest logistics firms in North America, with 9,000+ employees in 60+ offices across the U.S. Through its comprehensive portfolio of logistics services and network of 140,000+ carriers, the company moves 3 million loads of freight annually.

“We are proud that Total Quality Logistics has selected Little Rock, Arkansas as the location for its next office,” noted Clint O’Neal, executive director of the Arkansas Economic Development Commission. “TQL is a major freight and logistics firm with an established track record in Arkansas, and the new Little Rock office demonstrates that companies like TQL are finding success here in the Natural State.”

“From the Port of Little Rock to Galloway, Maumelle, and across the metro, the Little Rock region has emerged as a logistics hub for several of the world’s largest companies,” added Jay Chesshir, President and CEO of the Little Rock Regional Chamber. “We are proud to welcome Total Quality Logistics, a company known around the United States as an employer-of-choice, to Little Rock.”
