Baltimore, MD (Hwy52 Media) January 9, 2011 -- Samuel Shapiro & Company, Inc., a 95-year old logistics leader, announced Mary Beth Longerbeam (formerly Ferrebee) will be returning as the Branch Manager for its Dulles, Virginia office.

Longerbeam worked in the same capacity from 2002 to most of 2008 and now returns after working as Branch Manager at Kamino International Logistics and OHL. Prior to her work at Shapiro, Longerbeam worked at Danzas (now DHL) from 1990 to 1998 where she was promoted three times within her first three years and worked her way up to a Branch Manager position.

“Mary Beth lives and breathes Shapiro’s values. She goes above and beyond the call of duty for our customers, and strives to serve as an extension of their businesses,” said Margie Shapiro, Samuel Shapiro & Company’s President and CEO. “We are thrilled to have her back.”
