KAG is one of North America’s largest tank truck transporter and logistics provider, delivering fuels, specialty products, merchant gases and food products.

“The transition will take time, but will allow us to streamline our operations, better capitalize on our extensive U.S. footprint with our 4,000 professional drivers and independent contractors, capture best practices of all operating groups and, most importantly, continue to provide our customers with the first-class service they have come to expect from KAG,” KAG Energy Executive Vice President Jason Platt said in a press release.

KAG Energy is one of the largest transporters of petroleum-based products in the country, annually delivering over 30 billion gallons of refined petroleum products and renewables to its customers nationwide.
