Vision Logistics Holding Corp. has announced the creation of a new entity, made up of Ace Transportation, Dynasty Transportation, Texas Hot Shot Company and Venture Transport.
The four carriers have combined to form United Vision Logistics, a transportation services provider with a broad variety of customers and a predominate presence in the energy industry.

Between July 2007 and April 2008, New York-based private equity firm Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe purchased the four companies and have been working to integrate them into one company.

"United Vision Logistics is the consolidation of all of the strengths and competencies of each of the four companies, now further enhanced by new technologies and increased power in the marketplace," said Tom Perdue, CEO of United Vision Logistics. "Our customers can count on the same reliability and expertise that came with each of the four acquired companies and look forward to bigger and better capabilities from the integrated United Vision Logistics."

United Vision Logistics is headquartered in Lafayette, La., with terminals and capacity in both Louisiana and Texas in support of its energy customers. It also maintains general commodities terminals and truck brokerage operations across the U.S. The company operates using an owner-operator business model with more than 2,800 owner-operators, 130 terminals, and nearly 400 employees.
