OBJ’s Fastest Growing Companies: The Top Five
#3 GoFor Delivers
THREE-YEAR REVENUE GROWTH: 1,382%
LAST YEAR’S RANK: 1
PROFILE: GoFor provides small to big and bulky last-mile delivery services in the retail, construction and supply chain industries across North America.
What has been the biggest challenge you have faced in relation to the fast growth of your company?
“The biggest challenge is being a last-mile industry leader while expanding our focus on sustainability. Customers want convenience, speed, and sustainability. GoFor is helping customers do this with carbon offsets, electric vehicles, and smart packaging to make the last mile carbon negative. Another challenge is doing this at a time of massive workplace change. GoFor has implemented a 100 percent remote workforce in North America, working diligently on how to encourage connection to one another as our company grows.”
What did you do to address it?
“In 2022, we will be bringing new educational content and messaging to the front of our purpose. Breathing new life into the brand’s mission and re-energizing existing and future customers about why sustainable delivery is the path to the future.”
What has been your biggest lesson learned?
“What we hope it truly shows is that GoFor is listening and cares about the wants, needs and success of everyone we connect with, internally and externally. More than ever, GoFor has the capability and the resources to make sure we maximize the value of our employees, drivers, customers and most, importantly, our communities.”
