Customized Logistics & Delivery elects new president and new board members

Joel Pinsky was recently elected president of the Customized Logistics & Delivery Association (CLDA). Pinsky is the CEO and CFO of Global Messenger and Logistics. The election was announced at the CLDA’s Final Mile Forum.

Three new board members were also elected at that meeting: Alberic (Al) Jean-Baptiste, President/CEO of 24/7 Enterprises LLC in Union, NJ; Harold Boyett, President and CEO of Blue Streak in Jacksonville, FL; and Roslyn Ellerbee, CEO and Founder of Express Errands & Courier in Atlanta, GA.

Pinsky has been involved with the CLDA since 2010, serving on multiple committees, including Member Benefits, Membership, Vendors, Final Mile Forum, Government Affairs, Final Mile Focus, and its predecessor, the Executive Leadership Summit. He has been a member of the association’s Board of Directors since 2017.

“I joined my first committee and then the Board of Directors because I wanted to give back to the logistics industry,” he says. “This association has provided networking and educational opportunities that helped my business and me get to where we are today. As President, I hope to lead the CLDA onward and upward so that the diverse members of our industry can receive the opportunities I have been lucky enough to have.”
