"had enough" I heard the same figures, 5 million dollar loss in October. As I look back on the history of Vitran, I guess Kimack, and, Kosovec were not that bad. Keylon is like a shinny shoe, without a sole, and its not his fault. G A E T Z, ruined this company. 15 years of neglect has caused the demise of this truckline.
Lets make this simple. Successful truck lines as follows: AAAC (Dothan, AL), Averitt Express (Cookeville, TN), Estes Express (Richmond, VA), Central Transport (Warren, MI), SAIA (Atlanta, Ga & Houma, LA), R&L Carriers (Wilmington, OH), South Eastern Freightlines (Columbia, SC), Fed Ex Freight (Harrison, Ar & Memphis, Tn), ODFL (NC),
Bottom line, there is not one CANADIAN company listed on this list, and I left off, Conway, Pitt Ohio, Central of Texas, YRCW, ABF, Dohrn, NEMF, etc..
G A E T Z and his lack of vision, lack of knowledge of the USA LTL market is the problem.
Sad, but true.
