Customers will receive 10 percent rebate on Canadian shipments from Aug. 1-31
LIMA, Pa.--(Business Wire)--
Pilot Freight Services, a worldwide provider of transportation and logistics
services, announced today that it is offering a discount on all shipping to
Canada in the month of August. Qualifying customers using Pilot`s Transborder
Canadian Service, which reaches more than 10,000 cities, towns and hamlets in
Canada, will receive a rebate on Pilot`s base door-to-door transportation
charges. Pilot ships to Canada through a partnership alliance with Concord
Transportation, a Canadian transportation and logistics company. 

"Despite the difficult economic times that we are in, and the impact on the
transportation industry, our shipping volume to Canada has remained high," says
John Hill, Executive Vice President of Sales for Pilot. "We have been working
with Concord for almost two years now, and have been extremely happy with the
results. We feel that this rebate program comes at a crucial time for many
shippers, both in the U.S. and Canada, and is our way to help continue the flow
of shipping to Canada." 

This program is limited to customers who have not used Pilot to ship to Canada
in 2009. More information on this program is available at
http://pilotdelivers.com/pages/canada-promo.html, or by contacting your local
Pilot office. A list of Pilot locations is available at
