Manitoulin Transport has acquired Express Havre St-Pierre (EHSP) of Quebec, Canada. The acquisition builds out Manitoulin’s coverage in central and eastern Quebec, particularly in the province’s rural areas.
EHSP provides truckload and less-than-truckload temperature-controlled, dangerous goods, and white glove services for a variety of industrial and commercial customers. Headquartered in Havre-St-Pierre, the company has terminals in Quebec City, Varennes, Baie-Comeau, Sept-Îles, and Chicoutimi in Quebec, and also in Labrador City, Newfoundland.
“Express Havre St-Pierre has stood the test of time and built a solid name for itself as a well-run, customer-centric business,” said Jeff King, president, Manitoulin Transport. “Having served the Quebec marketplace for more than 40 years, their knowledge of its communities, roads, and the unique needs of its industries, is second to none. This depth of experience, combined with their broad range of equipment and process-oriented operations have been key to EHSP providing consistent, quality service for many years.”
“We look forward to combining our knowledge and experience with Manitoulin’s,” said Félix Bélanger, general manager, EHSP. “We believe our customers will be delighted with their easy access to Manitoulin’s various transportation and logistics services and global reach.”
EHSP will operate as a stand-alone entity with the current management team remaining in place.
