Third-party logistics provider Spartan Logistics announced it has acquired Allen Logistics. The deal adds 100,000 square feet of space to Spartan’s asset-based network of over 20 dry storage and food-grade warehouses.
Financial terms of the transaction were not provided.
Spartan Logistics’ latest acquisition in Whitehouse, Ohio, gives it seven locations in the Northwest Ohio market and 11 total in the state. The warehousing and transportation provider’s footprint now includes 4.5 million square feet of space across nine states in the Midwest and the South. It has a large presence at South Carolina ports in Charleston and Savannah.
“Toledo has been a key market for Spartan for many years, and this acquisition represents another investment in our future here,” said Spartan Logistics CEO Steve Harmon.
The Columbus, Ohio-based company operates a fleet of approximately 50 tractors, providing local shuttle and regional freight transportation services, including just-in-time delivery. It offers cross-docking, fulfillment and warehouse management services. It also has a real estate construction and brokerage services arm.
“We’re excited about the opportunity to welcome a strong group of employees and customers to Spartan and build on the relationships and operations that have already been established,” Harmon said.
Why it matters? Spartan Logistics’ acquisition of Allen Logistics expands its network and strengthens its regional service density across 11 Ohio locations. Additionally, the integration of warehousing with its truck fleet enhances the company’s ability to provide streamlined freight transportation, delivery and fulfillment services.
