Redwood Logistics (Redwood), one of the fastest-growing supply chain orchestration and logistics execution companies in North America, today announced the company has acquired Rockfarm Supply Chain Solutions and Global Distribution and Logistics (collectively referred to as “Rockfarm”).

The Redwood Games is Redwood’s annual fundraising event that encourages friendly competition, with employees spread across dozens of fundraising teams in the spirit of raising money for an organization that serves a community in need. The months-long event also acts as a collaborative initiative to bring Redwood employees together to meet new colleagues, exercise teamwork, and raise significant funds for organizations doing great work. In 2022, we partnered with The Danny Did Foundation, a nonprofit organization advancing public awareness of SUDEP and providing aid for those affected. Epilepsy impacts 65 million people globally, and an estimated 50,000 deaths occur worldwide each year due to SUDEP. To support the cause, Redwood was able to raise $209,125, half from an annual employee fundraising competition called the Redwood Games and the rest from a company match.

Redwood offers Employee Resource Groups, also known as ERGs, as part of our DEI strategy. They serve as a safe space for employees of all backgrounds and identities to come together. Membership in ERGs is 100% voluntary for employees. Still, we encourage all employees to join and participate in ERGs as we know they significantly contribute to the employee experience here at Redwood Logistics. Redwood currently offers Women in Logistics and African Americans in Logistics ERGs to recognize the progression of its members in impactful supply chain roles, provide a safe space for insightful discussions, and the opportunity to work together to overcome challenges to diversify the industry.
