IMC Logistics has acquired American Pacific Transportation, a California-based drayage company, significantly increasing IMC's position and truck capacity in California and across the West Coast. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. 

“As a result of this acquisition, we will have more than 500 trucks in California, signifying our commitment to our customers in this region,” said Joel Henry, Chief Executive Officer for IMC.

The acquisition brings on board two new locations for IMC in Lompoc and Calexico, California.

“The transition should be seamless,” added Henry. “We already have so much in common including 42-plus years of dedicated expertise, similar values, a commitment to customer service as our top priority, and an eagerness to provide superior care and capacity for our growing client base.”

With locations in Calexico, Chino, Commerce, Lompoc and San Diego, California, American Pacific Transportation has been a leading provider of domestic rail and international harbor drayage as well as regional truckload and dedicated distribution services since 1976.

IMC, the largest marine drayage provider in the U.S., is the conglomerate of the former Atlantic Intermodal Services (AIS), DNJ Intermodal Services (DNJ), Gulf Intermodal Services (GIS), H&M Intermodal (H&M), Intermodal Cartage Company (IMCG), Ohio Intermodal Services (OIS), and Pacific Drayage Services (PDS).
