A. Duie Pyle opens up Maine-based integrated logistics center


Westchester, Penn.-based freight transportation and supply chain services provider A. Duie Pyle recently announced it has opened up a new integrated logistics center in Saco, Maine.

Company officials said that the driver for this new location was to provide the company with the opportunity to be closer to its shipper customers in Maine and northern New Hampshire. And they added that Pyle will offer customized less-than-truckload (LTL) and Custom Dedicated operations out of the facility, which it said will provide greater flexibility and higher service levels for shippers in this region.

“We are excited with our continued growth and for the new efficiencies our customers will gain utilizing the new integrated site,” said John Luciani, COO of LTL Services at A. Duie Pyle. “Providing superior quality service is the hallmark of what Pyle sets out to achieve, so placing greater tools and resources in the hands of our customers is always our real focus when opening new locations.”

Located 15 miles south of Portland off I-95 at the I-195 interchange, this facility, which is located on around 38 acres, has a 33,000 square-foot building with a three-bay, fully functioning 8,600 square-foot shop with truck wash has 40 dock doors.

A. Duie Pyle said that it expects to add 20 full-time jobs for this facility in various positions, including: driver, dock, fleet tech and administration staff.
