Online Transport, an Indianapolis logistics and truckload company, has purchased A/T Transportation and Automated Logistics, based in Ferdinand, Indiana. This marks the second acquisition of 2023 for truckload carrier Online Transport, and the sixth acquisition since 2019.

A/T Transportation is an asset-based truckload company with a reported 90 trucks Automated Logistics provides additional logistics solutions, including warehousing solutions, freight brokering, and freight consolidation.

This latest acquisition comes on the heels of Online Transport's acquisitions of Mustang Express and Ormsby Trucking based in El Paso, Texas; Pleasant Trucking, based in Connellsville, Pennsylvania; Shoun Trucking, based in Bristol, Tennessee; and McCammon Trucking, based in Hartford City, Indiana.   

"Having closed our sixth recent acquisition, we will continue the momentum and execution of our plan to become one of the largest asset-based logistics providers headquartered in Indiana," said Kalvin Cook, Online Transport CEO. "This will require Online to continue to pursue strategic acquisitions with other dry and refrigerated freight carriers and logistics providers."

Nick Pavilonis, Online Transport co-president, said the addition of A/T Transportation business is synergistic within the Oneline Transport’s existing network, adding capacity, additional logistical services, and new customer relationships.

"The integration of a fleet that has been consistently recognized as the Carrier of the Year with MasterBrand Cabinets, with our fleet that was recognized as the 2022 Toyota Carrier of the Year, is going to create one of the most highly-skilled truckload companies on the road today." Said Bott Farrell, Online Transport co-president.
