“I am honored and excited to lead LaserShip in its next phase of growth,” said Mr. Holifield. “We have exceptionally talented teams at both LaserShip and OnTrac who are focused on providing best-in-class delivery services to our retail and shipping partners. That focus will continue to generate innovative, impactful delivery solutions as we combine to help our customers build more flexible and resilient supply chains to support the needs of their consumers.”

Mr. Holifield is joining LaserShip from The Home Depot where he served as Executive Vice President – Supply Chain & Product Development. Prior to The Home Depot, Mr. Holifield was Executive Vice President of supply chain management at Office Depot. He earned his B.B.A. from the University of Texas and an M.B.A. from Baylor University.
