Ryder divides its business into three segments: Fleet Management Solutions, Supply Chain Solutions, and Dedicated Contract Carriage. In 2008 (the last year whose report is posted online) the total company revenue was $ 6.2 billion with profits (earnings before income taxes) of $ 459 million. The numbers mentioned below are before eliminations.[5] The basic variables are who owns the trucks, maintains the trucks, pays the drivers, does the warehousing, and supervises the driving.
Supply Chain Solutions
Ryder' Supply Chain Solutions accounted for 26% of its revenue for a total of $ 1.6 billion. Profit of $ 42 million was 9% of the total. These solutions are logistics management services designed to optimize a customer’s supply chain. Basically the customer owns the trucks and Ryder decides where they go managing the warehouses and the drivers. Ryder managed over 15,000,000 square feet (1,393,546 m2) of warehouse space on December 31, 2008.
Ryder launched a consumer truck-rental operation in 1968 with 1,000 trucks and vans. These were the yellow trucks known as "one-ways" and available for the public to rent from filling stations and other automotive-service locations. In June 1998, facing competition from U-Haul, Ryder exited the direct-to-consumer rental business by selling its rental division to Budget Truck Rental.[7] The white Ryder trucks seen on highways today are available only to business customers under contract and not to the general public.
