Purolator USA appoints Schwoerer to head N.Y. regional office

Purolator USA, the small-package and freight forwarding subsidiary of Canada's largest integrated distribution services company, said it has appointed Helen Schwoerer as manager of its Newburgh-Stewart, N.Y., branch facility.

The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey acquired the Stewart Airport last year and has plans to make it the region's fourth major air hub.

Schwoerer succeeds Bill Dobbins who, after managing the Newburgh office for four years, will join the company's business development group.

Purolator USA also began offering small package and express delivery services within the United States in 2007.

Purolator USA said it has doubled the size of its U.S. office network during the past 18 months, with branches operating in Los Angeles, Seattle, Chicago, Detroit, Buffalo, Dallas-Ft. Worth, Philadelphia, Raleigh/Durham, New York City and Newburgh, N.Y.
