COOKEVILLE, Tenn. — Jim Morton, chairman and C.E.O. of LINC Preferred Group, Inc. announced the formation of LINCedge, a division designed to serve all sizes of businesses with truck fleets.

LINCedge is set to unveil the LINCedge "Over The Road" program for fleets with Class 7 and 8 trucks nationwide.

"Our mission is to maximize the profitability of transportation providers by optimizing the supply chain and applying best business practices with mutual benefit to all stakeholders," Morton said.

The foundation will be a widely accepted fuel card and a wide array of products and services, starting with consulting, training, education, insurance, drug and alcohol testing, emergency roadside assistance, reporting, permit services, lodging and filtration products.

"There are many ‘benefit providers’ in the industry, but, at the end of the day, what are the true savings that are recognized by the trucking company?" asked Terry Wilson, LINCedge’s executive vice-president of Sales and Marketing and Chief Customer Officer. "We are committed to providing Total Customer Satisfaction utilizing experienced industry personnel in a one-on-one approach of examining the customer’s business situation to uncover areas for cost avoidance and savings, not just providing benefits, but passing along ‘true savings’ to our members. We are much more than just a fuel card company."
