Apex Freight Acquires Colorado Logistics Firm

Apex Freight Services said it has acquired Evergreen, Colo.-based third-party logistics firm Timberline Freight Services. Terms were not disclosed.

According to Apex the acquisition increases its cold-shipping expertise and gives it access to the multibillion dollar frozen food transportation sector.

The logistics provider said it will retain Timberline’s leadership but will centralize operations in Apex’s Lafayette, La., headquarters.

Apex said it is planning for further growth next year through additional acquisitions.
