PGL & Women-Owned Excellence

Empowering Global Supply Chains Through Woman-Owned Excellence

At Perimeter Global Logistics (PGL), one of our greatest points of pride is being certified with the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC). We’re a woman-owned and operated company, built on the foundations of integrity, innovation, and service excellence. Not only does PGL stand out in the global supply chain, but so does our leadership!

Investing in supplier diversity gives companies a measurable business advantage. According to Forbes, top supplier diversity programs generate 133% greater return on procurement-operations cost, adding roughly $3.6 million in value for every $1 million spent. Selecting a certified woman-owned logistics provider enhances operational performance while helping you meet key supplier diversity objectives.

About Lyn
Headquartered in Dallas, Texas, we believe that world-class logistics is more than just moving freight; it’s about connecting people, enabling commerce, and empowering organizations to meet mission-critical goals. And at the very heart of PGL’s success is Merry Lyndell LaMothe, our Chief Executive Officer and Owner of the company. As a graduate in Fashion Merchandising from the University of Houston, Lyn served as an officer in the Zeta Tau Alpha sorority and was also crowned Ms. Baytown, TX. In 2010, she and her husband, William LaMothe, acquired 78% of PGL’s stock and set forth on a journey that has grown the company into a major player in the global supply chain, with operations spanning the world.

Why Customers Choose a WBENC-Certified Partner Like PGL
• Supplier Diversity Advantage
• Secure best-in-class logistics solutions
• Advances your supplier diversity and ESG (environmental, social, and governance) objectives.
• WBENC-certified woman-owned enterprise

Agility & Executive Access
As a privately held, woman-owned business, PGL offers direct access to leadership and faster decision-making than many large publicly held providers. Our entrepreneurial culture fosters bespoke logistics and supply-chain management solutions that align with your mission, timeline, and budget. PGL’s WBENC certification validates that the company is independently woman-owned, operated, and controlled. For customers who demand governance, operational integrity, and transparency, that assurance matters.

Competitive & Contracting Advantages
When your RFPs, bids, or contracts call for diversity participation or supplier-inclusion metrics, working with PGL provides measurable value. It enhances your contracting eligibility, clears diversity spend targets, and strengthens your competitive posture. When you work with PGL, you are partnering with a company that values family, faith, community, and advancement of women in leadership—while delivering world-class logistics and supply-chain performance.

A Partner You Can Trust
PGL combines the reach of a global logistics powerhouse with the agility and authenticity of a certified woman-owned enterprise. From our headquarters in Irving (Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex), we coordinate global freight forwarding, contract logistics, industry-specific supply-chain management, and more. We work across air freight, ocean freight, ground transport, and intermodal solutions. Through our PGL Connect technology platform, we deliver real-time visibility, automated alerts, document management, and end-to-end control.

In Conclusion
Under Lyn LaMothe’s leadership, PGL continues to redefine what partnership means—responsive, responsible, results-driven. We invite you to explore how our woman-owned legacy, combined with our global logistics expertise, can be the strategic advantage your business deserves.
