AIT Worldwide Logistics is a global freight forwarder that helps its customers grow by expanding access to markets all over the world. For over 45 years, the Chicago-based supply chain solutions leader has relied on a consultative approach to build a global network and trusted partnerships in nearly every industry, including aerospace, energy, high-tech, home delivery, life sciences, marine and more. In more than 150 worldwide locations across Asia, Europe, the Middle East and North America, AIT’s subject matter experts apply scalable, user-friendly technology to customize end-to-end deliveries via sea, air, road and rail—on time and on budget.
In my opinion, this company was a total fail, both in terms of communication and also execution. There is no way I would intentionally use this company for anything, but unfortunately they were thrust upon me as part of my equipment delivery from Dick's Sporting Goods, and the entire experience was a total nightmare.
This company did not honor the confirmed delivery date even though they told me I had to take off work and wait at home for the delivery and assembly. Then, they never called back to reschedule and when customer service was contacted, it resulted in an endless cycle of disconnects, repeating the same things over and over, them finger pointing at Dick's for issues and then my contacting Dick's only to hear that they were not responsible. Overall, poor communication and follow through on their end as the delivery and assembly service, and top it off, they ghosted me after a supervisor said they would get back to me regarding all of my issues and then the guys doing the work actually left trash in my garage after assembly.
If I ever get assigned this company again for any type of delivery or assembly, I will just cancel my order, as companies like Dick's Sporting Goods have to do better in terms of choosing who they do business, with and companies like AIT Logistics just have to do better period, as the headaches were not worth it, and I will never be a customer of theirs for anything ever again as a result. Total disaster from start to finish in my personal experience.

Worst logistics company on planet earth. I ordered a 85 Inch Tv from Sam’s Club and it was shipped with AIT and once it arrived at my local warehouse it said someone will call me to schedule a delivery appointment in 48 Hours. No one called me. I’ve called the warehouse about 32 times and no one answers the phone. I’ve called customer service about 23 times and they try to call the warehouse and no one picks up the phone. Never do business with this garbage company. If I could give negative stars I would.

Worst delivery company ever. On my delivery day I called three times. No one could find it on the schedule. Third time a called and somehow they found it and said it would be delivered on 9/6. I ordered this on 8/19. The charged a huge delivery fee yet they can’t deliver. Will never do business with them again.
