Case Studies

Freight transportation disruptions happen, but customer deliveries can’t wait. One of KAG’s customers experienced their dedicated driver calling off when a critical delivery needed to be made.

A leading private-label lubricant distributor in North America was experiencing rapid growth across the Southwest US market. As shipment volumes doubled out of Texas, the distributor’s existing transportation model struggled to scale efficiently. 

A western-based convenience store chain operating across the Rocky Mountain region began facing increasing challenges of sourcing fuel reliably. A tapped-out local fuel market led to frequent shortages and rising wholesale prices, putting pressure on both margins and customer access at the pump.

A large-scale fuel distributor faced rising insurance exposure, escalating fleet costs, and growing workforce challenges. To address these pressures, KAG executed a Private Fleet Conversion (PFC), assuming responsibility for fleet assets, drivers, and operations. 

A customer from KAG’s Food Products needed transloading support in the Phoenix, Arizona area. However, KAG Food Products does not operate a terminal in that region, creating a potential service gap for this customer’s supply chain needs.

A specialty manufacturer faced rising tank wash costs and inconsistent delivery reliability, threatening their ability to serve customers efficiently. KAG stepped in with a smarter, streamlined solution—ultimately cutting wash-related expenses by more than 80%.

Hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30—and when a storm strikes, recovery hinges on preparation. For KAG, preparation begins well before a storm makes landfall.

A sulfuric acid supplier sought to optimize its transportation needs to overcome inconsistent capacity and declining service levels. The client’s specialized equipment requirements and the need for reliable carriers posed significant obstacles.
