Ryder System, Inc., a provider of transportation and supply chain management products based in Miami, Fla., has recently launched a new and improved online newsroom on its website (www.ryder.com). The newsroom is designed to help journalists remain up to date on company news in real time, while also accessing relevant content and multimedia to support ongoing coverage of Ryder.

The site, which can also be accessed directly at http://newsroom.ryder.com, provides journalists with a one-stop-shop host of resources, including press releases, press kits, story ideas, executive and subject-matter expert biographies, and a link to Ryder’s online Investor Relations center.

Members of the media can download or request Ryder videos and images, as well as access the latest sustainability content. They can also access additional Ryder video and content through the company’s social media channels on Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter, available directly through the newsroom.

In addition, journalists can remain updated on the latest schedule of Ryder conference and tradeshow participation via the new events page on the site, and register to receive company news and updates via e-mail, SMS alerts, and RSS feeds. A new, advanced search functionality also makes it easier to filter and find information according to a specific subject matter or timeframe.

“We are pleased to offer this enhanced resource to further connect with media covering transportation and logistics and the individual sectors we serve, as well as those who view our business as a bellwether of the economy and other macro business trends,” said David Bruce, Vice President of Corporate Communications and Public Affairs for Ryder. “Our goal is to better serve news media by making more information immediately available, while also increasing our team’s ability to assist media with specialized requests.”
