One of the nation’s largest marine drayage fleets is adding to its business portfolio. IMC Companies, a Memphis-based, nationwide intermodal logistics carrier, recently added another company to its family of brands. Pacific Drayage Services will provide drayage and warehousing services to customers in the Seattle and Tacoma, Washington, markets.
The PDS fleet is made up entirely of company-owned trucks and employee drivers, and IMC has ordered 150 new Mack trucks – a $20 million capital expense.
