In 2003, Talon Logistics opened its' door
in New Albany, IN with 2 employees, and 5 drivers. Talon
Logistics was created to be a division of a traditional
truckload carrier based out of central Kentucky. The
principle mission for Talon was to provide
transportation services to the shipping public in the
Louisville, KY area. The Talon management team wanted to
expand the services offered. The only way to accomplish
that was to discard the corporate mentality of "old
school" trucking.
In 2005, the management team at Talon
Logistics (our management team has over 150 years
of combined transportation experience), separated from
the original owners and created Talon Logistics
Services, a full service logistics company. Our asset
based trucking division allowed us more flexibility in
handling our customers' domestic van freight and
international container movements. Our strategic
partnerships with public warehouses allowed us to
offer storage, transloading, and consolidation of
freight nationwide. We also provided onsite and
offsite yard shuttle service for movement of inventory
and equipment.
In 2009, we evolved into THE TALON
LOGISTICS NETWORK, a sophisticated logistics company
providing a wide range of transportation services
employing more than 75 people. Our services now included
a full service warehouse and 3rd Party Logistics
services. That same year we moved into a new corporate
office located in a modern, multi-functional building in
Jeffersonville, IN.
In 2011, we moved to our current,
multi-acre Logistics campus located in Sellersburg, IN.
The move to Sellersburg increased our warehouse storage
space and our staff is now over 100 employees.
Here we grow again.....in 2012, Talon
partnered with the largest tank builder in North
America. Caldwell Tanks, Inc., headquartered in
Louisville, KY has been building innovative, customized
storage tanks and vessels throughout North America since
1887. Caldwell is the industry leading provider of water
storage tanks and a growing provider of industrial
field-erected tanks, vertical concrete storage
structures, concrete construction for foundations, tank
asset preservation programs, power augmentation and
coatings solutions. Caldwell is our second customer to
utilize our innovative 3rd Party Logistics model by
turning their transportation departments over to us, so
they can focus on what they do best.....Build
Tanks. We are very excited to add flatbed
hauling as one of the many services we offer. Stay tuned
for what is happening with Talon.....who knows, we could
be partnering with you next!.
