   ROAR Logistics has acquired Phoenix-based Legend Transportation Group (LTG).
   Through the purchase, ROAR adds LTG’s less-than-truckload systems and services to its third-party logistics services offerings.
   ROAR’s acquisition includes LTG’s headquarters location in Phoenix, giving ROAR two western U.S. operations. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
   ROAR is a subsidiary of global food company Rich Products Corp., based in Buffalo, N.Y.
   In January 2013, ROAR opened its first West Coast office in Temecula, Calif. The office has helped ROAR enter the Mexico market and expanded its presence in Southern California.
