"We’re thrilled to expand our team and strengthen our ties in Alabama through the tremendous Huntsville community,” TQL President Kerry Byrne said. “We chose Huntsville for its accessibility and considerable pool of talent. We’re excited to be part of this city while building on our 10-year presence in the state.”
“Alabama continues to be a destination for leading companies like Total Quality Logistics, and I’m thrilled to see them expanding their footprint in our state with the new office in Huntsville,” Governor Kay Ivey said. “This expansion, creating 100 new jobs, demonstrates TQL’s strong confidence in our workforce and our thriving business environment. As we continue to position Alabama as a hub for innovation and economic growth, companies like TQL are helping drive our success forward.”
Huntsville is the economic driver for the North Alabama Region and has a 16-county population of 1.3 million people.

TQL joins a growing list of companies in Huntsville featuring logistics.
“We are excited to welcome TQL’s expansion into Huntsville, which further demonstrates Alabama’s appeal as a hub for business growth and innovation,” stated Ellen McNair, Secretary of the Alabama Department of Commerce. “This investment not only highlights our state’s strong logistics infrastructure but also Alabama’s readiness to support global growth projects and our ability to keep up with fast-paced changes driven by technology and the evolving logistics landscape. The ripple effect of this expansion will not only fuel Huntsville’s economic development but will also enhance Alabama’s standing as a leader in attracting forward-thinking industries.”
