Jevic Transportation Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of SCS Transportation (NASDAQ:SCST), today announced the opening of a newer, expanded facility to serve customers in Southern California. The new LA Metro Facility, located at 1000 South Cucamonga Avenue in Ontario, California, has almost three times as much dock space as their previous location, and is well situated with easy access to major highways like Interstates 10, 15, and 215. "The Ontario facility allows us to absorb the growth we are experiencing as we respond to growing customer demand for our services," said Paul Karvois, Jevic President and CEO. "The larger dock configuration allows us to be even more responsive to our West Coast customers and improve on our already solid pick-up and delivery performance in the greater Los Angeles metropolitan region." The larger facility is an important factor in the innovative Jevic Breakbulk-Free(R) system. Jevic picks up shipments that are then sorted and loaded into trailers for sequential delivery. The Jevic system provides significantly less handling, more consistent transit times, and industry low damages and claims for the customers. The Breakbulk-Free(R) process is an alternative solution to the problems customers associate with repeated handling and sorting that occurs in the hub and spoke systems. "Our investment in the Southern California area demonstrates our commitment to our customers and addresses the growing demand for our services," said Karvois. "Continually expanding our Breakbulk-Free(R) model allows us to bring the Jevic experience to a larger shipping population, improving supply chain consistency for our customers who, in turn, now have improved the experience for their customers." -0- *T Full Address and Contact Information: Jevic Transportation 1000 South Cucamonga Ave Ontario, CA 91761 Facility Director: Ken Warner Customer Service: call 1-888-GO-JEVIC (888-465-3842) *T Jevic Transportation is a fully integrated, multi-regional motor carrier, providing Next Day, Regional, National, Canadian LTL, and selected truckload services.
