ArcBest Simplifies Brand Structure and Streamlines Operations to Drive Long-Term Growth and Efficiency
MoLo Solutions, Panther Premium Logistics and ArcBest Technologies will move under the ArcBest brand; ABF Freight remains ArcBest’s established LTL carrier
 
FORT SMITH, Arkansas, July 16, 2026 — ArcBest® (Nasdaq: ARCB), an integrated logistics company, today announced a simplified brand structure and a series of organizational changes designed to improve operational efficiency, create a more seamless customer experience, and position the company for long-term growth and improved profitability.
​
Effective Aug. 1, 2026, MoLo Solutions, Panther Premium Logistics and ArcBest Technologies will operate under the ArcBest brand, giving customers easier and clearer access to the company’s full suite of solutions. The ABF Freight brand will continue to represent ArcBest’s less-than-truckload carrier. The simplified brand structure advances ArcBest’s vision to be the leading logistics provider and innovator, working with shippers to build better, more resilient supply chains. It also reflects ArcBest’s continued focus on simplifying how customers access its transportation and logistics solutions.
​
ArcBest is also streamlining its organizational structure and optimizing its operating footprint to better align resources with its long-term strategic priorities. These actions include a reduction of approximately 2% of total positions through workforce reductions and the elimination of certain open positions, as well as the consolidation of select service centers representing approximately 1% of the company’s network doors. The company expects these measures to improve operating efficiency and generate approximately $40 million in annualized cost savings while maintaining ArcBest’s commitment to premium service.
​
“Our customers are managing complex, constantly evolving supply chains, and they want partners who make that work easier,” said Seth Runser, ArcBest president and CEO. “Bringing MoLo and Panther capabilities together under one ArcBest brand better unifies us as one team for a more coordinated experience across our solutions. We’re making it simpler and faster for them to access the solutions they need, while delivering the reliable service they expect. At the same time, streamlining our organization and operating footprint improves efficiency, strengthens profitability and positions us to grow without compromising the service our customers rely on.” 
​
ArcBest will continue bringing together experienced teams, creative solutions and purpose-built technology, including the recent launch of ArcBest View, to help solve challenges and build stronger supply chains. 
​
“ArcBest has been a trusted logistics provider for over 100 years,” Runser added. “These actions strengthen the foundation we've built and prepare us to deliver for our customers over the next hundred.”
