"AIT is known for our flexible approach and ability to quickly customize seamless solutions for our customers across a wide range of industries and geographies,” Fallon said. “Tim and his team are exercising their skills and expertise to ensure we can build those tailored solutions even faster, in part by beginning each project from a common foundation with the most accurate data available.”

I’m also enjoying sharing my experience with the next generation of freight forwarders and helping shape the future of the industry.”
