The Union Pacific agreement at Laredo, Texas, which H&M has been the terminal operator for 9 years, was extended thru 2013. Marion, Arkansas operated by H&M since 1998 was extended thru 2013. The Global I terminal in Chicago, Illinois has been operated by H&M for 15 years and will be extended for another 3 years.

The Norfolk Southern Memphis Tennessee Intermodal Facility was originally awarded to H&M in 2005. This agreement is now extended thru 2013.

Kevin Harrington, Senior Vice President of Rail Operations commented, “We are very pleased that the railroads recognize and appreciate the level of service we have provided over the years. These contract extensions provide us an opportunity to continue our high level of customer satisfaction and exceed the expectations’ of our customers.
