Keller Logistics

Responsive, Resourceful, Reliable people in logistics.

Keller Logistics Group is an asset-based third-party logistics provider built to help manufacturers, retailers, and distributors move, store, package, and manage freight with greater control and less complexity. The company’s roots trace back to founder Tom Keller hauling watermelons as a boy. Officially founded in 1978 with one tractor in Defiance, Ohio, Keller has grown into a national logistics provider with owned trucking assets, dedicated fleet operations, freight solutions, warehousing, co-packing, yard management, hopper and dry bulk capabilities, and industrial property solutions.

Unlike providers that rely solely on disconnected vendor networks, Keller brings key supply chain services under one accountable operating structure. With 350+ tractors, 475+ professional drivers, 1,500+ trailers, 9 million square feet of warehousing, 30+ dedicated sites, and 29 facilities, Keller delivers the scale of a national 3PL with the responsiveness of a family-owned company.

As a second-generation business accountable to stakeholders rather than stockholders, Keller focuses on long-term partnerships, disciplined execution, and practical solutions that solve real operational problems. Its integrated logistics model connects transportation, dedicated operations, warehousing, co-packing, freight brokerage, industrial space, and proprietary YardLink™ yard management technology to reduce handoffs, improve visibility, and help customers turn supply chain complexity into a competitive advantage.

RESPONSIVE

When demand shifts, peak surges hit, or exception events disrupt schedules, Keller flexes with owned capacity rather than scrambling for outside coverage. The dedicated trucking fleet absorbs volume spikes across nine states, and Freight Solutions taps a multimodal network covering dry van, flatbed, reefer, intermodal, LTL, expedite, and drayage when overflow or unusual lanes call for it. Private Fleet Conversion gives shippers the service control of a private fleet without the capital, liability, or overhead.

RESOURCEFUL

YardLink™ delivers real-time visibility across trailers, docks, gates, and drivers from a single platform, eliminating the guesswork that costs hours at the gate. A dedicated hopper and dry bulk division moves grain, seed, feed, fertilizer, food ingredients, and industrial powders that standard van fleets aren’t built for. Food-grade warehouses positioned at strategic freight crossroads across the country serve leading food and beverage brands with contract storage, co-packing, and cross-docking. And when a customer outgrows existing space, Keller’s industrial property arm handles build-to-suit construction and customizable leasing.

RELIABLE

Hundreds of professional drivers back every dedicated operation, so the route runs whether a driver calls out, the weather turns, or equipment needs to swap. Freight Solutions backs brokered loads with carrier vetting and the Keller Secure™ freight protection program. Warehouses run on food-grade certification and retail compliance, with co-packing and cross-docking operations held to the same documented standards. The same accountability applies across every business unit, every shift, and every site.
