About Us

Chief Executive Officer

Paul Broussard

Paul earned a degree in business from the University of Houston and began his career as a transportation trainee with the Missouri Pacific Railroad Company which was subsequently acquired by Union Pacific. Following a decade of successful stints in rail management, operations and administration, he formed P.L. Broussard & Associates, Inc., with the headquarters at Union Station Bldg. in downtown Houston.

The new Company offered shippers/receivers an opportunity to utilize a third-party professional entity to assist in managing, controlling, and reducing freight transportation costs. These services were extended when the Company acquired a firm in Dallas, TX, that also offered similar support for shippers/receivers with domestic and international shipments.

Under Paul’s leadership, the Company established online, cloud-based Transportation Management Software (TMS) through two internal business units: Broussard Logistics & Freight Cowboy. These two robust groups now lead the entire organization into the future providing customers with logistics and supply chain management programs throughout N. America. After more than 40 years, Paul is still active in the business he started and providing unique insights for our leadership team, based on his vast experiences of over 50 years in the logistics industry.
