About the Company

Ingram Barge

Inland barge transport, fuel services, logistics

Ingram Barge Group moves dry and liquid goods on over 4,500 miles of U.S. inland waterways with a well-maintained fleet and strong customer service, and also offers midstream fueling, lubricants, groceries in select markets, supply deliveries, and waste disposal through its related units. It adds landside capacity through Ingram Infrastructure for transloading, storage, and inland river terminals, and uses Ingram Logistics Services as a licensed NVOCC to arrange international shipments. The company integrates inland and landside logistics to provide end-to-end solutions rather than focusing on a single service. Its goal is to deliver reliable, practical logistics that move goods efficiently along inland and cross-border routes.
