Fall 2026 Logistics Internship

Jarrett Logistics is a third-party logistics company headquartered in Orrville, Ohio. Our clients come from a variety of industries (such as automotive, food, and aerospace – just to name a few) but the common denominator is that they ship something. We’re here to coordinate the process between our clients (mostly large manufacturing companies or suppliers) and carriers. To accomplish all of this, our team not only set up shipments for our clients, but they troubleshoot, answer questions, and fix issues before they become larger problems. Here at Jarrett, we are problem-solvers and our goal is to do great things for our clients every day.

So what sets us apart, you ask? We like to call it the Jarrett Difference. It’s our PEOPLE.

• Making notes in our software, jShip, with updates that you’ve received on various shipments


• Send daily and/or weekly reports to clients that detail the status of each shipment (ex. In Transit, Out For Delivery, Delivered)


• Collaborating with your teammates to find the best solution for shipments that aren’t going according to plan
