LOWELL, Ark.-
-(BUSINESS
WIRE)--J.B. Hunt
Transport, Inc.
announced that
they and the Sam
M. Walton College
of Business at the
University of
Arkansas are once
again combining
their expertise in
supply chain
management to
develop and
launch the J.B.
Hunt Supply
Chain University.
In the summer of 2013, nearly 300 J.B. Hunt sales executives from across the United States attended
the company's supply chain forum on the University of Arkansas campus. Forum sessions were led
by Walton College faculty and senior-level executives from J.B. Hunt covering topics ranging from
sales to logistics outsourcing to global trends in supply chain management. The J.B. Hunt Supply
Chain University will expand the forum's scope and reach by developing an innovative learning
curriculum to empower J.B. Hunt employees with current supply chain knowledge focused on
helping them create additional value for their customers.
"J.B. Hunt is an exciting company with which to partner. They have a long history of listening to
their customers and being innovators in the field of supply chain management," said Eli Jones, dean
of the Sam M. Walton College of Business. "In response to the rapid changes in the supply chain
management industry and J.B. Hunt's need to develop industry leading talent that can seek out and
solve complex problems alongside their customers, the Walton College supply chain department is
developing what we believe is a unique, educational program designed to make supply chain
education accessible to all J.B. Hunt employees. Its goal is to provide education that is relevant,
practical and actionable."
The curriculum content will range from the foundational principles of supply chain management to
the most advanced topics in the industry today, and the delivery methods will be as varied as the
content. J.B. Hunt employees will have the opportunity to learn in online, blended and face-to-face
learning environments.
"J.B. Hunt believes the Walton College's Department of Supply Chain Management is the right
partner to develop the J.B. Hunt Supply Chain University. Our company and the University of

2. Arkansas have a long and deep connection and our collaboration continues to grow. We feel that
they are at the cutting edge of supply chain management thought and they understand the needs of
our business, and most importantly, the needs of our customers," said John Roberts, J.B. Hunt
president and chief executive officer. "This program is a key part of our long term strategy that will
deliver the leadership, creativity and value our customers have come to expect from J.B. Hunt."
