Bradley Jacobs, chief executive officer of XPO Logistics (NYSE: XPO), has been honored by the Containerization and Intermodal Institute (CII) as the recipient of the 2017 Connie Award. The Connie Award recognizes individuals that have had a positive impact on the progression of the containerized shipping and intermodal industry.
