Daniels Island Company Named to America’s Largest Sales Forces List


[Charleston] – Total Quality Logistics (TQL), a third party freight brokerage firm located on Fairchild Street on Daniels Island, was recently named to Selling Power Magazine’s 2010 list of the 500 Largest Sales Forces in America. 

                Each year, the magazine ranks companies according to the estimated number of sales people they employ. There are five categories, including manufacturing, service, insurance, direct-selling, and automotive. TQL, which fell into the service category, was ranked #158 with approximately 675 sales professionals on staff.

Total Quality Logistics, headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio, opened a satellite sales office in Charleston in September 2010.
