International Freight Services (IFS) Acquired by ClearFreight
Logisyn Advisors is pleased to announce a sell-side transaction with International Freight Services (IFS). IFS is a well-known, non-asset-based freight forwarder in the Chicago market with a global network of customers and agents, as well as recently winning the WCA North American Agent of the Year Award. ClearFreight, another WCA member, acquired the firm on October 6, 2020. The exact terms of the transaction are not available to the public.
Per Bob Roubitchek, owner of IFS, "We've known the Logisyn team for many years. Based on our future plans, I asked them to help us find the right strategic buyer, one that would be a good fit for our clients and employees. ClearFreight is a great match and our combined team is ready to start building."
Logisyn's Managing Director, Mikael Olesen comments, "We were pleased to manage this transaction between two distinguished freight forwarding companies. Working alongside executive leaders from each company, we knew finding a strategic mutual and cultural fit was crucial. On behalf of both parties, our team is proud to have delivered an optimal solution."
