Total Quality Logistics Opens Baton Rouge Office, Creates 98 New Jobs – 10/12 Industry Report

Total Quality Logistics, a global freight brokerage and logistics company headquartered in Cincinnati, is opening a new office in Baton Rouge.

TQL is the second-largest freight brokerage in North America and one of the world’s largest third-party logistics companies, according to Louisiana Economic Development. The company expects to create 98 new jobs through its Baton Rouge office.

The new office represents an expansion of TQL’s presence in Louisiana, as the company’s first office in the state opened in New Orleans in 2017. That office currently employs more than 100 people.

TQL employs more than 9,000 people in over 60 offices nationwide and transports more than 3 million truckloads per year. The company’s stated goal is to create greater supply chain efficiencies for its customers through its “comprehensive” portfolio of logistics services and network of more than 140,000 carriers.

TQL’s Baton Rouge office is located on Westfork Drive, just off South Sherwood Forest Boulevard. The company is currently hiring for entry-level sales positions.

TQL is expected to participate in Louisiana’s Quality Jobs program, which offers a rebate to companies that create good-paying jobs and promote economic development in the state.
