Armstrong Transport Group, a Charlotte-based non-asset-based logistics provider, announced it has appointed Cameron Ramsdell as chief executive officer. Ramsdell, a seasoned logistics executive, succeeds Brian Mann, who will continue an active role with the company as chairman of Armstrong’s Board of Directors and will support Ramsdell, the company, and its leading agency network.
Ramsdell will be responsible for setting strategy and accelerating the company’s top goals, including continuing to execute its strategic plan to increase market share through expanded service offerings, investing in technology and developing and retaining high-performing agents and brokers to continue the strong growth of the Armstrong network.
“We are thrilled to bring in Cameron as CEO to support Armstrong’s exciting next chapter of growth,” Mann said. “Cameron understands our company’s business model, the value of our agent network and the vast growth opportunities in front of us, and I believe he is the perfect person to lead our business going forward. I am such a believer in what we have built and what we are building at Armstrong and I am committed to supporting Cameron and Armstrong during the transition and beyond in any way I can.”
Ramsdell brings more than 15 years of logistics operations, sales and technology leadership to Armstrong, having most recently served as chief operating officer at Emerge, a freight procurement platform and has extensive professional experience in the third-party logistics industry. He also led multiple divisions of a top five large asset-based carrier and held multiple senior leadership roles at Coyote Logistics, a leading supply chain and freight logistics company, including serving as chief technology officer.
“I am so excited for the opportunity to join the Armstrong team,” Ramsdell said. “Armstrong is uniquely positioned to grow into one of the largest and most differentiated transportation companies in the industry. Brian’s leadership has been critical to Armstrong’s success over the past decade and I look forward to continuing to work closely with him during the transition and through his role as chairman.”
