\u00a0Saddle Creek Logistics Services, a leading third-party logistics (3PL) provider offering\u00a0warehousing,\u00a0fulfillment\u00a0and\u00a0transportation\u00a0solutions, today named Grady Martin Chief Executive Officer, effective today, as part of a planned leadership transition. Martin succeeds Mark Cabrera, who is retiring after serving as CEO since 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Martin has decades of logistics and supply chain leadership and has played a key role in shaping Saddle Creek\u2019s growth and operational strategy, most recently as COO. He has been instrumental in developing the company\u2019s roadmap for innovation and implementation, enhancing operational capabilities, and helping clients navigate customer demands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGrady is a proven leader with a deep understanding of our business, our customers, and our people,\u201d said Cabrera. \u201cHe has been a driving force behind our operational excellence and culture, and I have great confidence in his ability to lead Saddle Creek into its next chapter.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As CEO, Martin will focus on advancing Saddle Creek\u2019s client-first approach, investing in people and technology, and continuing to deliver flexible, high-performance logistics solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m honored to step into this role and build on the strong foundation Mark and our leadership team have established,\u201d said Martin. \u201cSaddle Creek\u2019s success has always been driven by our people, our partnerships, and our ability to adapt to our clients\u2019 evolving needs. I look forward to working to continue delivering value and supporting their growth.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cabrera joined Saddle Creek in 2001, serving as chief operating officer (COO) and chief financial officer (CFO) before being named CEO. Under his leadership, the company experienced significant growth, expanded its national footprint, and invested in solutions to support omnichannel fulfillment and scalable logistics operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt has been an honor to lead Saddle Creek and work alongside such a talented and dedicated team,\u201d Cabrera said. \u201cI am proud of what we\u2019ve accomplished together and confident the company is well-positioned for continued success under Grady\u2019s leadership.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
