Quantix purchased the assets of five fleet companies: Dobbins Enterprises, C&S Express, Chancelor Transportation, T&K Chancelor Enterprises and Templet Transit.
The deals in total adds more than 140 trucks and ancillary equipment to the company's liquid and plastics transportation division.
The trucks will service customers around the Gulf Coast including Houston, and Port Allen and Baton Rouge, Louisianan as well as Meridian, Mississippi.
"Quantix continues to scale our services in Texas and the Gulf Coast regions, and these new assets strengthen our ability to do so," said Quantix and President Chris Ball, in a press release. "Greater capacity means better service for our customers, which remains the guiding purpose of our continued growth."
Last month, Quantix acquired G&W Tanks, a provider of ISO tank transportation, as well as ISO tank repair, ISO tank storage depot, wash and loading services. G&W represented the eighth acquisition for Quantix under the ownership of Wind Point Partners, which acquired the business in 2019.
Quantix's growth strategy focuses on acquiring companies that provide dry and liquid bulk transportation, warehousing and logistics services to producers and distributors of chemicals nationwide.
