Busy dispatch manager planning shipments

Meet Our Latest Hire: A New Dispatch Manager! 

/0 Comments/in /by

Best Yet Express is always growing. The more customers we serve, the more efficiency becomes a priority. In a busy warehouse and shipping yard, there are so many moving parts to keep track of. To help us continue fulfilling our pledge to provide the best service around, we’ve brought on a new dispatch manager, Keith Oliver.

He’s been in the business for decades, but that’s not the only reason we hired him. Here are a few fun facts about one of the most important behind-the-scenes players on BYX’s team. 

Our new dispatch manager started out as a mail carrier

As a family-owned company with humble beginnings out of the back of a single pickup truck, we admire anyone who works their way up. Keith did just that, starting out as a courier for FedEx Express in Quincy, Illinois back in 1992. Knowing firsthand what it’s like to be behind the wheel is a significant asset when you’re managing drivers day in, and day out. He knows our drivers because he’s been one and that only makes him a better team player.  Read more

Spring has sprung, flowers are growing and so are we! 

When BYX was founded in 1978, the company was run out of the back of a single pickup truck. By the time we took on Hewlett Packard as a client in the 80s, we had outgrown pickups and added tractors and bobtails to our fleet. Each decade of business welcomed new trucks, new technology and new clients. 

After 43 years of business, we’re thrilled to announce that our company is growing even more. This summer, BYX is expanding into a new class-A building to help us serve even more amazing business owners throughout Southern California.  Read more
