Echo Global Logistics Unites Roadtex and ITS Logistics to Form One Integrated Supply Chain Network

Echo announces new North American Supply Chain Solutions Suite to manage supply chains from warehouse to final customer

CHICAGO, Sept. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Echo Global Logistics, Inc. ("Echo"), a leading provider of technology-enabled transportation and supply chain management services, announced today that it has united ITS Logistics ("ITS") and Roadtex into Echo's North American Supply Chain Solutions Suite, one of the most advanced and fully integrated networks to support emerging brands up to enterprise organizations. The suite enables shippers to replace fragmented vendor networks with one trusted partner for streamlined supply chain management and improved operational performance.

"Bringing together the proven solutions of Roadtex and ITS under Echo's North American Supply Chain Solutions Suite creates one trusted partner our clients rely on," said Dave Menzel, President and Chief Operating Officer at Echo. "Echo now provides distribution and fulfillment, warehousing and value-added services, temperature-controlled and food-grade transportation, retail consolidation, and parcel solutions — fully integrated."

Roadtex, which was acquired by Echo in 2022, brings more than 30 years of experience in food-grade, temperature-controlled transportation, warehousing, and warehouse services. ITS, which was acquired by Echo in March 2026, offers industry-leading omnichannel distribution and fulfillment capabilities, as well as expertise in the growing e-commerce market. The combined network spans 8 million square feet of warehousing space across more than 40 facilities connected by first, middle, and final mile transportation services, enabling next-day reach to 85% of the contiguous U.S.

"Echo has functioned as more than just a provider for us—they've been an extension of our team," said César Melo, CEO of Hippeas, an Echo client. "We're a rapidly growing business, and having warehousing and transportation solutions which can scale with us as we expand has been the strategic differentiator we've needed." 

This integrated supply chain solution provides proven, customizable infrastructure from port to warehouse to end user, lowering handling costs while reducing service failure and compliance risks. Specialized distribution and fulfillment services include integrated parcel, retail consolidation, and the premier national footprint LTL carrier that handles temperature-controlled shipments (55°- 65° degrees Fahrenheit) year-round. Customizable kitting, packing, and labeling services are also available within Echo's warehouses, which are certified to the highest food safety and regulatory standards. Together, the suite offers a streamlined approach to supply chain operations for compliance-focused, fast-scaling, and time-bound industries like food and beverage, consumer goods, and life sciences.  

"Whatever distributors or emerging brands need — now or in the future — we can provide within Echo's network," said Frank Hurst, President of Supply Chain Solutions at Echo. "By removing the burden of managing multiple providers, or changing providers to support expansion or additional channels, Echo has the infrastructure to help clients scale."
