Canadian bulk hauler Trimac announced it has acquired North Carolina-based carrier Feldspar Trucking.
Feldspar Trucking hauls bulk materials used in the production of glass and ceramics, such as sand, clay and feldspar. The 57-year-old North Carolina carrier has 60 company drivers and is listed with 61 power units by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration.
The company also uses third-party carriers to haul freight for customers.
“Together and with the help of Feldspar’s leaders, we’re poised to enhance our bulk transportation services even further, supporting our customers and communities with unparalleled excellence,” said Matt Faure, Trimac president and CEO.
In addition to expanding Trimac’s geographic footprint, the deal supports Trimac’s efforts to serve the mining industries.
“This partnership not only ensures the continued growth and success of Feldspar Trucking but also opens doors to new opportunities and expanded horizons for our team and clients alike,” said Jim Norris of Feldspar Trucking.
Trimac operates more than 100 locations in the U.S. and Canada.
The deal closed on Monday.
