April 8, 2019

New brand, leadership introduced to headline Saltchuk’s logistics line of business

Saltchuk is pleased to introduce Hyak Supply Chain, the newest name in the Saltchuk family of companies. Hyak joins Foss, NorthStar Energy, TOTE, Northern Aviation Services and Tropical Shipping at the business unit level in the Saltchuk organizational structure. Saltchuk companies Shoreside Logistics and Carlile will fall under Hyak in updated organizational structure, but remain independently operated as they are today.

Leading the new business unit as President and CEO is Rick Murrell, who recently retired from Tropical after 40 years at the helm and is currently serving as Saltchuk SVP, Managing Director for the Caribbean. Murrell will work with leadership teams at two Saltchuk companies falling under the new brand, Carlile and Shoreside Logistics, to grow and develop their businesses.

The formation of Hyak reinforces Saltchuk’s commitment providing the best, most reliable logistics and supply chain services in the market.
