Who We Are  & Why It Matters

ACI is a national leader in the safe and reliable transport of time-critical, high value and highly regulated commodities for medical and healthcare providers like radiopharmaceuticals, retail prescriptions, bio-hazards, diagnostic laboratory specimens, medical devices and other hazardous materials. Over 40 years of family leadership, ACI has grown a national network with daily coverage over 39 states and 72 airports with 16 regional hubs. From Banking/Business to Pharmaceutical/Life Sciences to eCommerce/Final Mile, ACI is Pioneering the Future of Time-Sensitive Logistics.

National Network – Local & Regional Capabilities

ACI operates a national express ground network of 16 regional hubs and transfer operations throughout 39 states to facilitate the movement of time-sensitive, high-value medicines and medical supplies.  ACI’s owned and operated fleet of over 275 cargo vans, sprinter vans and straight trucks run daily dedicated local and regional routes to provide customers affordable, yet customized delivery service throughout the Northeast, Midwest, South and Southeast United States.  ACI uses a unique combination of employee drivers and independent contractors to offer two standards of service:  CDL/TSA/US DOT qualified (for highly regulated industries) and cost-competitive courier solutions (for general purposes and more affordable solutions).

Partnership Values – Why You Should Consider ACI For A Business Partner

We value Communication, Collaboration and Transparency in our business relationships.  We seek to work with shippers who practice a Strategic Sourcing philosophy which produces superior results for vendor and customer in the long term.  ACI has been successful because we remained true to these founding values. Nowhere is that more compelling than in the medical and healthcare fields where ACI has its courier service roots. 

ACI began as a specialty medical courier delivering time-critical and life-saving therapies to hospitals and nuclear pharmacies for cancer patients. Today, that has instilled a sense of pride, vocation and special meaning to our work.  A Partnership requires openness to address challenges and preparation to execute solutions.  This is a hallmark of ACI’s approach which we believe is necessary to be successful.  

We seek out quality medical, healthcare, B2B and eCommerce business partners who are also leaders in their field. These are the individuals and institutions we admire and would like to do business with as well.  In exchange, we bring our values of Communication, Collaboration and Transparency to make our business partnership a successful one for many years to come.
