MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. — To keep pace with company growth, Bay & Bay Transportation will open a new terminal in Fargo, N.D. on July 1, the transportation and logistics company reports. The terminal will provide logistics, brokerage and warehouse services, with parking space for tractors and trailers. 

The Fargo facility will be Bay & Bay’s second out-of-state terminal. In March 2006, the company opened a terminal in Neenah, Wis.

Bay & Bay hired Fargo native, Jade Nelson, 38, in March 2008 as west regional sales manager. He will oversee the Fargo terminal operations.

Prior to joining Bay & Bay, Nelson spent 15 years in numerous roles at a Fargo transportation services company.
