This is the first episode of our latest mini-series in partnership with Apex Logistics. Over the next four episodes, our "Delivering Apex" mini-series is going to take a closer look at Apex Logistics, their commitment to the community, to the environment, and all of the amazing people that are helping to make an impact across the globe.

Today in Episode 1, "Apex Cares," I'm joined by Amy Froese, Corporate Growth Marketer, and Holly Qualman, Sales, Marketing, and Analytics Strategist, to talk all about quality service and giving back – why it's so important and the different programs Apex are involved in to truly help make the world a better place.
