Southeastern Freight Lines, the leading provider of regional less-than-truckload (LTL) transportation services, today announced Matt Smith has been promoted to service center manager in Louisville, Kentucky.

Smith began his career at the Atlanta service center in Georgia as an inbound dock supervisor. He has served in various leadership positions during his time with the company, including inbound operations manager, pickup and delivery operations manager and, most recently, assistant service center manager at the Atlanta breakbulk facility in Georgia.

“Over the years, Matt has consistently demonstrated his dedication to excellence and his efforts to enhance Southeastern’s culture,” said Jason Hood, regional vice president of operations for Southeastern Freight Lines. “He is widely recognized as a steadfast leader who cultivates a positive environment and has a heart for serving others. I am confident he will continue to lead with integrity and passion, driving even greater success for our Louisville service center.”

Smith and his wife, Haifa, are originally from the greater Louisville region and are thrilled to be relocating back to the area with their two sons, Beckett and Baker.
