At Aspiria, success stories are often told through
a blend of innovation, strategic growth, and
community connection. One standout example
is Radiant Logistics, a publicly traded global
transportation and supply chain management
company (NYSE American: RLGT). Since joining
the Aspiria community, Radiant’s KC-based team
has grown, embraced collaboration, and built a
strong reputation—all while staying true to its
mission of transparency, accountability, and
high-touch service.
We sat down with Operations Leader, Steve
McLeary to talk about the local team’s
experience, the company’s global reach, and
why Aspiria is the right place to call home.
Why Aspiria NOW?
“Honestly, it’s been everything we needed and
more,” McLeary shared. “When clients visit,
they’re blown away by how beautiful and
well-kept the campus is. Parking is easy, and
the amenities are top-notch. We’ve even had
visitors come back three times in one day
just for the coffee!”
McLeary continued “The location,
professionalism, and atmosphere have not
only helped elevate Radiant’s brand but also
contributed to the company’s team culture
and daily energy.”
A Global Network, Local Roots
Radiant Logistics was founded in 2005 with a
vision: to build a best-in-class global network by
partnering with logistics entrepreneurs. Today,
with over 100 operating locations worldwide,
Radiant delivers everything from white-glove
delivery services for retail to transporting heavy
machinery across the globe.
Here in Kansas City, the office is intentionally
small and service-focused.
“We’re not a massive corporation in how we
operate,” McLeary explained. “We have an office
of just 10 people, and we’re incredibly close.
Our niche is in service. Our customers are
everything—and that’s what separates us.”
This agile team benefits from Radiant’s broader
reach and technology investments, such as
real-time shipment tracking tools and global
supply chain integrations—without losing the
human touch.
Built for Growth
As a non-asset-based logistics provider,
Radiant continues to grow through both
strategic acquisitions and organic development.
The team sees Aspiria as a launchpad for even
greater opportunity.
“We’ve grown to love it here. The relationships
we’ve built with the management team are
second to none,” McLeary said. “No matter
how big we grow, we want to grow right here.”
Radiant also places a strong emphasis on
sustainability and inclusion, with initiatives that
include the release of their first Sustainability
Report in 2024, and certification as a Minority
Business Enterprise through Radiant Logistics
Partners. These values echo throughout the
company’s national footprint and local offices.
Looking Ahead
With cutting-edge tools, a trusted brand, and a
commitment to people-first logistics, Radiant is
uniquely positioned for the future of supply chain
management—and the Aspiria office is right at
the heart of that momentum.
“I highly recommend Aspiria,” McLeary added.
“Rob and Kathy have been amazing. They’ve
helped us scale and stay grounded. This place
isn’t just a campus—it’s part of how we
do business.”
