About the company

Spartan Logistics runs warehouses and freight services for manufacturers and distributors that outsource the storage and movement of their goods.

Businesses hire Spartan to receive, store, and distribute products, including food, beverages, paper, and packaging, through dedicated or shared warehouse operations. It also arranges industrial property brokerage and warehouse construction services through specialist affiliates. Founded in 1988, the family-owned company is headquartered in Columbus, Ohio.

What believers are saying

  • Hazelwood shuttle drivers return home daily: Spartan advertises local routes starting at $28 hourly.
  • Spartan's forklift opening in Fort Smith includes retirement support: the posting lists a 4% employer 401(k) match.

What critics are saying

  • Spartan's food warehouses demand stricter compliance: employees participate in extra procedures, audits, and routine inspections.
  • Fort Smith forklift work includes overnight hours: Spartan schedules Monday-Thursday shifts from 8:30 p.m. to 7 a.m.
