 PROFILE
Half a load is better than none for Vitran Corporation. The company gets 78% of sales from its Canadian and US less-than-truckload (LTL) business, in which freight from various shippers is combined in trailers. Vitran -- the name is short for vital transportation -- has a fleet of more than 5,000 tractors and trailers. It also operates truckload, intermodal brokerage, and logistics services divisions and has a recycling business. Vitran maintains roughly 75 terminals and offices in Canada and the US. The company is seeking to expand its North American logistics and LTL operations through acquisitions and is focusing on internal growth of its environmental business. CEO Richard McGraw owns 18% of Vitran.
