Jevic opens Detroit facility

Jevic opens Detroit facility    Jevic Transportation, the Delanco, N.J.-based hybrid less-than-truckload and truckload carrier, has opened an facility in the Detroit metropolitan area.
   The Detroit Metro Facility, located at 18577 on the Dix-Toledo Highway in Brownstown Township, sits on 16.5 acres and has 20 insulated doors on an 8,000-square-foot dock. It also has 3,550 square feet of office space attached.
   The company said the site will be an important addition to its Jevic Breakbulk-Free system, which picks up shipments that are then sorted and loaded into trailers for sequential “load-to-ride” delivery.
   Jevic Transportation was sold July by SCS Transportation to private equity firm Sun Capital Partners for about $40 million in cash.
