The company also announced that CEO Tom Finkbiner has been named chairman of TCX. Finkbiner will continue to serve as CEO until a successor is named. TCX has also named a new company president, Larry Shugart, who previously held roles at Worley Parsons and CSX.
“Since founding TCX in 2013, we have built a world-class business with almost $100 million in revenues, a fleet of over 700 state of the art refrigerated containers, a diversified group of customers, sophisticated IT infrastructure, and critical long-term rail operations," said Finkbiner. “Larry’s hire comes on the back of a number of internal promotions and hires in sales and operations as we continue to strengthen our organization.”
