I became a Greatwide Agent in 2014 after my father’s passing. I learned so much about this industry working alongside him and I became determined to continue working toward his dreams to grow our little agency. When I learned The Evans Network acquired Greatwide, I was concerned that our small family-like organization would change, however, after becoming part of the Evans family (and family is exactly what Evans is) I truly believe they take no shortcuts in helping their agents succeed. They celebrate your successes with you and are always asking for feedback as to how they can help you grow your business. At Greatwide/Evans you will find great people, great leaders, and great support. With the reputation the Evans name brings to the table, it makes partnering with them an honor. I couldn’t ask for a better family to grow my business with. It is a true pleasure to be part of this amazing company.

Operating under our motor carrier authority, agents deliver customized solutions to meet their customers' specific needs. Most align with one of two core agent-models below, though some blend elements of both.
Capacity Agents
Agents manage dedicated drivers & leased owner operators, giving them direct access to capacity to move freight. They maintain established shipper relationships & provide customized solutions for container drayage, full truckload (dry van, open deck, refrigerated) and more.
Brokerage Agents
Brokerage Agents act as intermediaries – they maintain established shipper relationships by connecting them with reliable carrier capacity to move freight. They offer tailored solutions for container drayage, full truckload and other services to meet the diverse needs of their customers.
Agents celebrate 10+ Years with The Evans Network at the 2025 Agent Meeting in Austin
Our annual Agent Meeting is designed to inspire, connect and empower
our Agents through engaging discussions, industry insights and unforgettable experiences.
