Armstrong & Associates’ Evaluation: |
Ozburn-Hessey Logistics has been aggressively expanding its logistics network and capabilities via acquisition. Most recently it acquired freight forwarder Barthco International and non-asset based domestic transportation manager Turbo Logistics. This follows its 2004 acquisition of Lanter and ODC in 2002. Once the new operations are integrated, OHL will be a major North American 3PL with international transportation management capabilities to compliment its large North American value-added warehousing and distribution operations. This should make its customers such as Red Bull very happy. |
