Client Care
Everything starts with the Client.
– Frank Glionna Sr., Founder Universal Logistics, 1949
Upholding our promises means staying true to our family values and ensuring a personal touch in every interaction. Trust in our commitment to consistently deliver outstanding outcomes.
Our Track Record
Check our track record and you will find that we were committed to building strong client relationships – with a unique combination of people, processes and technology – long before CRM (Customer Relationship Management) became a well established business process.
In fact, our commitment to delivering unmatched client service, introduced by our founder, Frank Glionna Sr. and reaffirmed by his successor, Frank Glionna Jr., is based on the belief that:
“Everything starts with the client. Think first about the Client’s business, the Client’s needs and the Client’s opportunities.”
“Everything starts with the client. Think first about the Client’s business, the Client’s needs and the Client’s opportunities.”
