Canada 150 Committee Works to Bring Joy to Country’s Sesquicentennial

As CEO of St. George Logistics Holdings in South Kearny, New Jersey, Chris Jamroz oversees operations of one of the nation’s leading container freight station companies. STG offers high-quality, end-to-end transport solutions handled through its network of dozens of shipping stations and supported by state-of-the-art logistics technology. In the field of community leadership, Chris Jamroz lent his support to the Canada 150 External Advisory Committee as its co-chair.

The committee was created to plan celebrations of the country’s 150th anniversary in Toronto. Throughout 2017, committee members helped promote the City of Toronto’s campaign of numerous commemorative celebrations and exhibits, called To Canada with Love. The city hosted dozens of individual events, while celebrations were also held in many other cities and provinces.

Promoted in both English and French, the series of events included dance, music, and other cultural performances as well as historical presentations, pop-up museum spaces, and commemorations tied in with sporting events. 

In addition to Mr. Jamroz, the Canada 150 committee comprised community leaders representing institutions such as the government of Ontario, the University of Toronto, the Royal Conservatory of Music, and a number of other official agencies, educational organizations, and businesses.

Third-Party Logistics Industry Moves Toward Turnkey Solutions

The leader STG Holdings, LLC, Chris Jamroz provides warehousing solutions through a coordinated network of container freight stations spanning the United States. Chris Jamroz’ firm is a major independent player in the third-party logistics (3PL) sphere, which is undergoing consolidation after years of fragmentation and relative neglect.

A recent Logistics Management article brought focus to an industry that is increasingly emphasizing supply chain visibility, with comprehensive, integrated services a core feature. With companies such as Amazon leading business-to-consumer inroads in e-commerce, distribution and 3PL companies that can offer a flexible range of services on short notice have the best chance of thriving.

Customers are placing particular emphasis on proper timing such that their goods are shipped to the correct location within the expected time frame. Having a single contact point helps simplify complex logistics matters and ensures accountability when issues arise.

Having effectively combined the capacities of AZ Corporation and St. George Logistics, STG Holdings is well positioned as a provider of seamless solutions that benefit from high levels of automation and customer responsiveness.
