CEO and founder, John Rediehs is a 4th generation member of a successful family transportation business. John grew up around the trucking industry and his passion grew into opening his own brokerage, securing his authority in late 2012. Over the years Red Dog has continued to re-invent themselves and is now a full-service logistics company heavily invested in digital solutions and proprietary transportation technology. When John got started, he had recruited 2 others to help him grow and get the ball rolling. From 3 guys, 3 computers, 3 phones, they started calling to secure freight and forge business relationships. Red Dog Logistics has grown from $0 in sales 2012 to a 30Millions+ Corporation in 2022.

As Red Dog continues to grow from pup to DOG, their goal is to double revenue year over year and maintain their focus on customer relations and technology-backed solutions.
