WILMINGTON — R+L Carriers, a worldwide leader in LTL shipping and logistics services, announces the launch of their “Hometown Showcase” tour. This large-scale campaign introduces freight transportation, logistics education, career opportunities and shipping solutions to communities across the United States.

The Hometown Showcase tour aims to support achievement and growth within communities by hosting their events right in the heart of their hometown. The tour kicks off Dec. 3-5 at the Ohio High School State Football Championships in Columbus. R+L’s Hometown Showcase will be on display just outside Ohio Stadium for all seven division games.

R+L Carriers has furnished a fully-custom, 53-foot, Hometown Showcase Hauler to serve as the entertainment hub for each event. In addition to five interactive stations highlighting career and shipping information, the Hometown Showcase features 11 HD video displays, containing R+L’s career opportunities, history, industry facts, a technologically advanced Bose Ride seating simulator, and more. Although these events often take place at high schools, visitors can expect games, activities and entertainment for all ages.

“We want to bring awareness to students across America about the Logistics and Transportation industry and the many career opportunities R+L Carriers has to offer,” said Greg Bronner, VP of Marketing.

R+L Carriers is also offering donations to participating schools and booster clubs. In an effort to provide continuing education opportunities to local high school students, R +L is offering a scholarship to one student at each event, awarded upon their high school graduation.

“Supporting school districts across the country is a simple way to champion the preparation of our young men and women as they prepare for the next stage of their life,” Bronner added. “With over 140 service centers nationwide, whether they want to be drivers or mechanics, or they’re interested in technology, sales, communications or administration, we have opportunities for employees of every interest and skill level who want to make R+L Carriers their home.”

Hometown Showcase is actively scheduling future events including the R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl on Dec. 19 as well as numerous college career days at universities across the U.S.
