An Ohio logistics firm plans to create 75 jobs as part of an expansion in Midtown Atlanta, state and company officials said Tuesday.

Total Quality Logistics will invest $1 million in its first Georgia office over the next three years, according to a news release. The majority of the jobs will be in sales positions.

The Cincinnati-based freight brokerage company helps firms that need to move cargo connect with carriers that can handle the job.
