FWRD

Forward Air Corporation (NASDAQ:FWRD) is a Tennessee-based asset-light freight and logistics company that has undergone significant transformation since its founding in 1981. Originally established as a regional less-than-truckload (LTL) carrier, the company went public in 1993 and has evolved into a diversified logistics provider serving the United States and Canada. In recent years, Forward Air has dramatically expanded its scope through the acquisition of Omni Logistics, transforming from a primarily domestic ground transportation company into a global freight forwarding and logistics services provider. The company is currently in the midst of a major integration effort to combine its traditional expedited freight operations with Omni's international logistics capabilities.
