Purolator adds U.S. branches

   Purolator International, a provider of U.S.-Canada logistics services, has opened three new branch offices in Columbus, Ohio; Newark, N.J.; and Phoenix, bringing their total number of 33 branches.
   The three new offices follow the addition of seven branches during 2012 in Baltimore, Charlotte, Denver, Indianapolis, Pittsburgh, San Diego and St. Louis.
   “Purolator’s growth comes at a time when U.S. business is increasingly looking to Canada as a source of new customers and economic opportunity,” said John Sweeney, vice president for field sales and service quality at the company. “Near shoring, the returning by U.S. companies of their operations to nearby or neighboring countries brings outstanding opportunities to Purolator.” – Chris Dupin
