DIST RIBUT ION
LAUNCH
Dear David,
I wanted to write with a proper thank you — not the quick note I sent from
my desk in the middle of everything.
The Southeast launch was our most complicated rollout to date, and the
reason it never felt like one is your team. From the September planning calls
to the final truck clearing the Atlanta hub, Lakeland handled every delay, every
route change, and every cold-chain requirement with a steadiness that made
the quarter feel calm. 96% on-time across the first 180 deliveries is the
strongest number this company has ever posted — and it's the first thing we
mention to prospective customers.
I also want to thank you personally for the Columbus visit back in November.
The time you spent walking me through your routing and capacity model has
already shaped how we're planning 2026, and I'm genuinely looking forward
to building on it together.
Warmest regards,
Elena Marsh
