In this episode of The New Warehouse Podcast, Kevin chats with Brien Downie, President of Holman Logistics, a family-owned third-party logistics company that has been operating continuously since 1864. 

Brien shares Holman's remarkable 161-year history, its values-driven leadership style, and why a people-first culture has been the company’s "secret sauce." From investing in employee development to supporting long-term customer partnerships, Holman Logistics proves that success in logistics isn’t just about automation or strategy—it’s about people who care.
