Texas-based Greatwide Logistics Services announced that it has acquired Virginia-based Camrett Inc.


Privately held Camrett provides dedicated contract carriage services to clients across a variety of industries including grocery, automotive, retail and wholesale. Key customers include The Kroger Co., Pepsi Bottling Group, Gatorade, Crown Cork & Seal, Cardinal Glass, TRW Steering Gears, Atsumicar, and Volvo Logistics.

Camrett will be integrated into Greatwide's Dedicated Transport business unit, which is the largest of its business units. "The acquisition of Camrett allows us to advance our dedicated contract carriage leadership position in the grocery and food markets." said Ray Greer, CEO of Greatwide Logistics Services.

"We've built our business by offering our customers flexible and high quality capacity. In most cases, Greatwide's existing dedicated operations are located near our customers' distribution centers, which will allow us to better serve our customers and grow faster than either of us could have done separately," said Collin Peel, president and co-founder of Camrett.
