In the world of trucking and logistics, few companies can boast a trajectory as impressive as JoyRide Logistics. This year, the company proudly celebrates its 10th anniversary, a milestone that highlights a decade of growth, challenges, innovation, and excellence. What started as a small operation has grown into a powerhouse of over 200 drivers and trucks, and a talented back-office team of 50+ professionals, all working together to deliver exceptional service across six states.
From Humble Beginnings to Industry Leaders
JoyRide Logistics was founded with a simple yet ambitious vision: To build a customer-focused business grounded in the values of hard work, integrity, and innovation. Starting as a one truck business, it has blossomed into a multi-state operation that services some of the largest clients in the industry.
The company’s founder, Adis Danan, knew that success would not come easily. Arriving in the U.S. with only $50 and a dream, he worked tirelessly in every role within the logistics industry — from dispatcher to broker to driver — before launching JoyRide Logistics. His passion, perseverance, and commitment to building a company that values its employees and customers alike have been the driving forces behind its growth.
Awards and Recognitions: A Testament to Commitment
Over the past 10 years, JoyRide Logistics has not only grown in size but also in reputation, boasting numerous awards that reflect its dedication to excellence and innovation.
Looking at one of their most impressive achievements – being named Most Valued Partner in 2022 by Amazon – the leadership commends the people who helped JoyRide Logistics earn it.
“When COVID hit, the market went wild, but our team stepped up. We enforced a strict no-cancellation policy, knowing how crucial it was to support our clients. The team overcame every challenge and delivered on time. This award is a testament to the strength of our systems and the dedication of everyone on the road and in the office, all of whom I’m thankful for,” said Adis, President of JoyRide Logistics.
This year, JoyRide was named a 2024 “Top Company for Women to Work in Transportation,” an honor that underscores its commitment to fostering an inclusive and supportive work environment, and JoyRide surely takes pride in creating opportunities and championing diversity.
Additionally, JoyRide earned a spot on the prestigious Inc. 5000 list as one of America’s fastest-growing private companies, ranked among the top 100 in Logistics & Transportation and in Arizona.
Moreover, JoyRide has become a golden member of GLA, a premier global logistics network, reinforcing its position as a forward-thinking, innovative company committed to growth on the global stage.
Driving Innovation: A Future-Focused Approach
At JoyRide Logistics, the search for ways to improve the experience for both drivers and customers is ongoing. One of the company’s proudest innovations is the Driver Retention Program, a groundbreaking initiative designed to recognize and reward the contributions of its drivers.
The program not only rewards excellence but also ensures that JoyRide’s drivers feel valued and supported, reinforcing the company’s commitment to driver retention, a notable problem in the industry.
Using customized formulas accounting for over 40 factors from the driver’s daily performance and behavior, the company created a performance-based bonus system and helped boost the company’s driver retention rate by 35% within 8 months and reward the best in their fleet.
Building a Legacy: The JoyRide Team
The success of JoyRide Logistics is, without a doubt, a reflection of the incredible team behind the company. From the leadership of founders Adis Danan and Chairwoman of the Board Vildana Danan, the VP of Business Development Kemal Balihodzic to the dedication of its drivers and back-office staff, every individual has played a critical role in building JoyRide Logistics into what it is today.
As JoyRide celebrates this milestone, the company is reminded that its greatest asset is its people. Their hard work and commitment to excellence have been the foundation of the company’s success, and JoyRide Logistics looks forward to more years of growth.
Looking Ahead: The Next 10 Years
Reflecting on the past decade, this company is filled with pride for what has been accomplished. However, the company is even more excited about the future.
Having achieved all of this by only hiring company drivers since its inception, JoyRide Logistics is working on their new owner operator program, exploring a brand new path for the carrier. The company is planning an expansion across the United States that will, in their eyes, be marked as the era of expansion.
JoyRide is continuing its tradition of focusing on efficiency and customer obsession, stating how it is the only way for carriers to truly stand out. With this approach, JoyRide Logistics is looking to “Make Trucking Cool Again”.
