Milan Express Announces Canadian Partnerships

Dec. 15, 2009 - PRLog -- Milan Express Co., Inc. announced today its existing partnership with Cavalier Transportation Services, Inc. to provide its Midwest/Southeast customers with LTL services to and from Ontario and Quebec, Canada. Additionally, Milan Express has entered into a new partnership with Kindersley Transport, Ltd. to provide its customers with LTL services to and from Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba and Saskatchewan, Canada.
   
Overnight LTL service between Chicago and the greater Toronto area is just one of the many service highlights from the union. The partnership gateway in Chicago allows U.S. customers to benefit from the extensive service network that Cavalier Transportation has built in the Ontario and Quebec traffic lanes over the past three decades. Additionally, the Chicago gateway will provide U.S. customers with reliable, 3-4 day services to western Canada via strategically located facilities and a modern fleet of equipment that comprise the Kindersley Transport service network.  In additional to LTL services, the partnerships also provide truckload, expedited, warehousing and logistics solutions.
      
“The U.S.-Canada trade lane continues to be a significant component of the supply chain for many of our customers,” said John Ross, president of Milan Express. “Addressing a service need voiced to us by many of our customers, we felt like the time was right to expand our operations and marketing partnerships in Canada. We are excited about the service quality that we can bring to our customers through our partnership with these two high-quality, experience Canadian carriers.”
