- TransForce abstract "Transforce is a Canadian transport and logistics company based in Montreal, Quebec. It operates across Canada through 4 business segments, and in parts of the United States through partnerships (one is with Estes Express Lines). It has Canada's largest LTL business, largest trucking fleet and ranked 14th in terms of revenue in 2005 among North American LTL carriers (however more recent lists such as [1] suggest it may be closer to top 5 (2010 1st qtr revenue transforce $466.1 million versus 5th ranked US company $359.9 million). Its trucking fleet consists of 6700 power units and 12000 trailers. Two thirds of business comes from operations in Eastern Canada while the rest is from Western Canada.The company's main source of growth has been complete takeovers (it holds no stakes in other companies) of smaller trucking companies (35 since 1992) which are then made into subsidiaries, though more recently organic growth contributed to the 53% rise in freight in the first half of 2010. In December 2010 it attempted to enter the US market when it approached Dallas based Dynamex with a $248 million takeover offer. In the 12 months leading up to October 31, 2010 Dynamex made $418 million in revenue (about a quarter as much as Transforce). Even though TransForce cut its trucking fleet by 100 power units in 2010 revenue didn't fall, the result of improved equipment efficiency. The company is currently controlled by the Saputo family (Emanuele (Lino) and Joey are 2 of the company's 8 board members). Former Quebec premier Lucien Bouchard is a member of the board of directors, representing the interests of Davies Ward Phillips & Vineberg.For 2012 all of the revenue growth came from the package and courier segment attributable to newly acquired Dynamex (1q2011) and Loomis Express (2q2011); the existing customer base experienced lower shipping volumes. In 2012 each business unit contributed the following to total revenue (before eliminations): Package and Courier 36.5% (2011 35.3%, 2010 19.2%), Less-Than-Truckload 20.4% (2011 18.4%, 2010 26.2%), Truckload 19.0% (2011 22.7%, 2010 29.6%), Specialized Services 24.0% (2011 23.6%, 2010 25.6%). Top customer's contributed 55% of total revenue between January and June 2011; They are involved in the retail (21%), energy (18%), services (12%), automotive (8%), waste management (6%), metals & mining (6%) and forestry (5%) industries.".
