“This new division structure enables us to more effectively manage our collective business, simplifies our logistics market message, streamlines operational reporting and creates business combinations that can more effectively react to growth opportunities given common mode and service platforms within each division,” said Cosmo Alberico, President and Chief Operating Officer of Odyssey.

In tandem with the new divisional structure, Odyssey announced several promotions and new assignments across its Executive Team that will drive the company’s new strategy forward.
