Pyle’s strategic planning director honored for driving growth and innovation in brokerage division

WEST CHESTER, Pa., March 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A. Duie Pyle (Pyle), a premier 100-year-old, family-owned and operated provider of asset and non-asset-based supply chain solutions, today announces that Craig Lough, director of strategic planning, has been named a recipient of the 2025 Pros to Know award by Supply & Demand Chain Executive in the Top Transportation Innovators category.

The Pros to Know award recognizes outstanding individuals and true pioneers of change across the industry, whose accomplishments offer a roadmap for other leaders. Lough has been instrumental in the development and execution of Pyle’s operational strategy, driving innovative business growth that delivers superior value to customers through Pyle’s brokerage division.

Lough demonstrates his commitment and expertise each day, as he balances time between managing his internal team, meeting with current customers and securing new business. When Lough first joined Pyle, he immersed himself in researching, designing and implementing the relaunch of the company’s brokerage division. This led to him spearheading the development of a completely new commercial go-to-market strategy. His efforts secured significant results, seeing 39% year-over-year growth, despite the economic downturn that followed COVID. Following the brokerage division's relaunch, Lough was appointed head of the new business unit, which includes two offices in West Chester and Mechanicsburg, PA.

“To receive this award from Supply & Demand Chain Executive and be mentioned in the same group of industry leaders is a humbling experience and the recognition belongs to our entire team,” said Lough. “The success of the brokerage division is a testament to the collective efforts of the ‘Pyle people’ in executing on our growth initiatives. The ability to adapt to industry challenges and continuously improve our strategic approach is what keeps Pyle a leading provider of transportation and logistics solutions.”

With extensive expertise in supply chain strategy and a focus on holistic business principals, Lough has become an integral part of shaping Pyle’s long-term logistics initiatives. His leadership has been instrumental in developing key new service offerings that provide personalized solutions to customers, streamlining Pyle’s operations and strengthening its reputation as an industry leader. Lough’s efforts have created a brokerage offering that operates through Pyle’s core values and establishes an unprecedented standard for employee development, satisfaction and well-being.

“Craig’s strategic vision has become a pivotal part of our growth in the brokerage division since he joined Pyle in 2022. His work has fundamentally impacted our ability to deliver best-in-class logistics solutions,” said Frank Granieri, COO of Supply Chain Solutions at A. Duie Pyle. “The recognition as a Pros to Know award recipient is well-deserved, as he is a key driver behind our continued success.”
