The Road To Success Landstar

The Landstar Contractors’ Advantage Purchasing Program (LCAPP) saved Landstar BCOs $80 million in 2022, and as prices continue to rise on almost everything for everyone, LCAPP savings will prove to be very valuable in 2023. In this episode of The Road to Success podcast, host Aaron Peterson gets the inside scoop on what to expect over the next several months when it comes to LCAPP’s two most popular items – fuel and tires.
Peterson rolls into the world of tires with Zane Gravino, Michelin Tires account manager, to talk about pricing and supply for Michelin Tires. Then, Ginger Robinson of TA Petro breaks down how fuel prices are determined and what the different types of discounts mean.
