Recognition underscores her proven expertise and relentless focus on elevating critical truckload services and dedicated solutions

Schneider Senior Vice President and General Manager of Van Truckload Erin Van Zeeland has been named a 2026 Supply & Demand Chain Executive Pros to Know honoree in the Leaders in Excellence category. The recognition reflects her ability to steer complex transportation operations through industry variability and accelerate performance across Schneider's Van Truckload and Dedicated service offerings, which together make up the company's largest operational segment.

With more than 30 years at Schneider National, Inc. (NYSE:SNDR), a premier multimodal provider of transportation, intermodal and logistics services, Van Zeeland is known for strong operational discipline, collaborative customer relationships and people‑first leadership. She aligns thousands of drivers, operations, customer service and sales associates around a common goal: to elevate transportation into a strategic advantage for shippers by providing an effortless experience and helping them get the most out of their resources.

Van Zeeland's extensive experience is especially relevant as shippers continue to face tightening capacity influenced by regulatory constraints, cost pressure, and weather- or holiday‑driven variability, conditions that make dependable multimodal providers with scale more valuable than ever.

"Erin brings together simplified processes and data‑driven decision making to create consistency our customers can count on. Under her leadership, Dedicated and Truckload deliver predictable outcomes, backed by AI‑accelerated responses when plans change," said Schneider Executive Vice President and Group President of Transportation and Logistics Jim Filter. "Her focus on people, reliability and the customer experience makes her truly deserving of this honor."

Driving performance where shippers need it most

Under Van Zeeland's direction, Schneider has strengthened its position as one of North America's most innovative truckload providers by enhancing the performance of its core networks. Her teams manage an expansive, highly visible fleet, including robust Dedicated operations, capacity that helps shippers navigate market shifts, seasonal volatility and supply chain disruptions.

Schneider's capacity and equipment are dispatched using engineered route optimization, giving customers the consistency they expect, with agility to respond quickly when plans change. The company also provides extensive refrigerated capacity, supporting both dry and temperature-controlled freight.

Helping shippers adapt to market conditions

Schneider continues to help customers navigate shifting market conditions by strengthening:

ROI through backhaul optimization, improving equipment efficiency and eliminating empty miles.
Flexible capacity for seasonal or volatile demand, helping prevent coverage gaps.
Smarter modal mix decisions, identifying where dedicated, one‑way, intermodal or brokerage delivers the best total landed cost.

"Our goal is straightforward," said Van Zeeland. "We want customers to experience fewer surprises and better outcomes. By pairing engineered networks with faster, AI‑powered responses, we can make service more predictable even when the market is not."
