Total Transportation Services Hires Frito-Lay Veteran to Head Dedicated
Transportation Program
(March 21, 2006 - Dallas) Jim Dunn, a thirty year veteran of the transportation
industry has joined Total Transportation Services LLC (TTS) in the capacity of
Manager-Business Development. Jim comes to TTS from Frito-Lay, Inc where, over
a thirty year period, he has served in a number of transportation management
roles and was instrumental in carrier development and dedicated programs for
the procurement group.
“Initially, Jim will assist us in the implementation of our potato management
program which will start on April 1, and we are counting on his experience and
expertise to help us develop programs where we can best serve Frito-Lay now and
in the future,” said Andy Cole, president and CEO of TTS.
“We are presently working on a number of creative and innovative programs that
will ultimately prove to be beneficial for Frito-Lay and deliver significant
productivity gains and Jim will be key in helping us to establish the
appropriate platform for these programs that will ensure our success as well as
the success of Frito-Lay,” said Cole.
“I am excited to become part of a team that is committed to the success of the
customer,” Dunn said. “Having served so many years in a quality organization
like Frito-Lay, I have come to expect the best from a supplier and that is one
of the most intriguing things that drew me to TTS as I contemplated moving over
to the supplier side of the business,”
“The TTS team works to exceed, not simply meet a customer’s expectations and
that is a company I want to be associated with," said Dunn.
Dunn will be located in the Plano, Texas headquarters of TTS and will work
closely with the corporate operations support group headed up by Jeff
Vielhaber, vice president of operations.
“It is a pleasure to have Jim become part of our team and I look forward to
learning from him new ways to serve our customers, both internal and external,”
said Vielhaber.
