Keller Logistics Group Stacks the Bench to Power Next Era of National 3PL Growth
The hires bring more than 75 years of senior commercial experience as Keller Logistics Group expands its national growth strategy across affiliates.
On May 14, 2026, Defiance, Ohio-based Keller Logistics Group announced three new senior commercial leadership additions across its operating affiliates, accelerating a multi-year talent build for national expansion.
CEO Bryan Keller stated the company is "stacking the bench for the next decade," a strategy following the July 2025 hire of Lars Cleland as President of Keller Freight Solutions.
Mike Whitlock joins Keller Warehousing & Co-Packing, Katie Furnish joins Keller Trucking, and Steve Staley joins Keller Industrial Properties, bringing more than 75 years of collective senior commercial experience.
KLG is expanding its warehousing footprint into states including Maine and Connecticut, enhancing multimodal focus and industrial real estate to serve enterprise shippers with integrated supply chain solutions.
Anchored by a mission to enrich lives, the company aims to leverage this leadership bench to reshape the national presence of a Northwest Ohio 3PL while maintaining core values of responsiveness and reliability.
