Montreal-based Axsun operates out of multiple locations across Canada and the US, providing an integrated mix of inter-modal services as well as over-the-road highway, drayage, logistics and warehousing on a primarily asset-light basis.

Despite the acquisition, Ramescu will continue to run the business as part of TFI International’s logistics segment, reporting to TFI Senior Executive Vice-President Steven Brookshaw.

“Axsun is very well-managed and rapidly growing under Steve Ramescu’s leadership, using an asset-light and technologically sophisticated approach to serve a demanding Fortune 100 customer base,” stated Alain Bédard, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of TFI International.

“These impressive characteristics make Axsun a strong strategic fit for TFI International in terms of culture and operating philosophy,” he added.

Details of the terms of the transaction were not made available.
