Our Happy Customers
Betty Robson • Owner of JF Moran
“From our very first meeting with Mark Para, George and I knew that we were in the right hands as we began to explore the possibilities for a clear succession plan. He became a trusted advisor and friend as we moved through the process. Having an entire team to support and guide us as we moved from discovery all the way through closing was essential to our being able to concentrate on our business while we walked this path. They exceeded every expectation we had, and I will be enthusiastically recommending them to others.”
Terry Lynch • Owner of Transcon Shipping
“I started Transcon in 1997 with just an idea based on ocean sales experience. I had a small checkbook but a large network in global logistics. Transcon grew year after year by staying focused on our core services and offering unique value to our customers. After almost 30 years, I decided it was time to find the right long-term opportunity for our team and customers. I’ve known Jan Raymond and Cris Arens for many years and turned to Logisyn. Cris was able to find the perfect partner in Radiant Logistics. Jake and Kevin from the Logisyn team helped us navigate the M&A process from start to finish. Our team is eager for the next chapter. ”
Steve Wen • Founder & CEO of Dray Alliance
“As the CEO of Dray Alliance, I am thrilled to thank Logisyn for their invaluable advisory services in the sale of our company to World Group. Their expertise and dedication ensured that the transaction was not only successful but also aligned with our long-term vision. I am deeply grateful for their guidance and support throughout this process.”
Bob Masterson • Owner of Harbour International
“The Logisyn professionals led us through this process with sound advice and good leadership at every turn. Their thorough knowledge of both the logistics industry and the business of acquisitions was evident and beneficial throughout the entire process. Logisyn did not just “sell” our company. They found a match that will foster the growth of both our employees and companies for years to come.”
Monica Kennedy • President of ITN Logistics
“It was of utmost importance to me to find a strategic buyer whose culture meshed with ITN as I wanted to “dock this ship” knowing my ITN family was safe and protected. I knew it would be challenging for Logisyn to find that perfect match, but could not have done it without their masterful T&L knowledge. The process was intense, but their team kept me sane and grounded. Logisyn is really wonderful, and it’s been my pleasure to work with them.”
Bud Coppersmith • President of Coppersmith Global Logistics
“The job that the Logisyn staff did to get us across the finish line was truly outstanding. They helped us structure the agreement and find the best-case scenario for our team and customers. Keeping all our people, culture, technology, and brand was a major part of our wish list, and Logisyn made it happen. Our staff is intact and has limitless growth potential with Honour Lane. We could not have done any of this without Logisyn’s help as it was a very complex project.”
David Pereira • Former Owner/CEO of Trinity Logistics
“Having known Ron Lentz from a prior deal, I knew Logisyn would be the right company for the job. Their team provided invaluable guidance from start to finish, minimizing the sale process distractions and guiding us to an ideal buyer for a premium value. Ron and Jan’s comprehensive industry knowledge was instrumental in streamlining the process and leveraging the company’s strengths based on current market activity. Having previously engaged in a failed process with an industry-agnostic investment bank, I can testify to the significant difference of having an advisory team dedicated to the T&L industry at my back. I give my highest recommendation to the entire Logisyn team.”
Pat Farrell • CEO of Export-Import Services
“The task of finding a buyer for my 86-year-old family business appeared overwhelming until Mikael Olesen and his team appeared on the scene. They quickly understood my goal to preserve what we had built over all these decades, plus find a company with similar values. The sale to BBL Groupe/Share Logistics provided a turnkey CHB operation and experienced staff while further enhancing EIS’s ability to offer full logistic services to both our clients and Share Logistics client base. Without the expertise, guidance, and professionalism of Mikael, Matt, and Kevin - none of this would have happened.”
Jason Traff • President & Co-Founder of Shipwell
“Thanks to Logisyn Advisors, especially Max and Matt, our transaction with CloudTrucks was not just a sale, but a strategic move that aligns with Shipwell's future. Their tailored approach and industry expertise were indispensable.”
Kevin Hannon • President of RS Express
“Becoming part of Point Global Logistics is a great moment for RS Express. Logisyn found us a great match, as their global presence and resources will increase our service offerings. Synergy will improve our shared culture of focusing on people, technology, and client service. Cris, Matt, Kevin, and Claire from Logisyn ran a successful process, navigating due diligence smoothly and delivering a positive outcome. We are very enthusiastic about the future and continued thriving client relationships.”
Lothar Krauth • VP Corporate Development at Flix
“When looking for sale-side support, a number of industry participants referred us to Ron Lentz at Logisyn. The Logisyn team was invaluable to the process and very hands-on in walking both our team and the OTD team through the potential avenues for a divestment, while handling the buyer mapping and due diligence with clear expertise and knowledge of the industry players. Logisyn never gave up working to find the right buyer, and both Flix and OTD are pleased with the outcome. Associated Couriers will be a strong partner for OTD to keep building with their aligned company values and goals. We are excited for them to start this new chapter.”
Dave Hockersmith • CEO of Supply Vision / Trans-Soft
“When I founded Tran-Soft, Inc. in 1998, I didn’t truly realize the strong demand for TMS and other logistic automation tools. We quickly became a recognizable brand in the US and were fortunate that leading US logistics providers put their confidence in us. In 2016, we acquired Supply Vision and developed it as our primary application.
After 25 years of growing our business, it was time to take it to the next level. We needed a partner that could provide the resources for our continued expansion and also be a good fit for our customers and staff. Over 50 M&A and private equity firms approached us in the past year. Evaluating our options, it became clear that Logisyn was the only sensible choice. I’ve known Cris Arens for years as a competitor, partner, advisor, and friend. A crucial factor in our decision was the logistics expertise that Cris and the Logisyn team bring to the table.
Cris Arens, Max Ibata-Arens, and Tom Gujda helped us prepare and navigate the process of selling our business. Logisyn found the perfect fit for us with Descartes. Not only was Descartes the ideal strategic fit, but they also provided the environment for our staff to flourish. During the entire M&A process, the Logisyn team was available to assist and answer questions. Logisyn’s experience and assistance assured a smooth transition and finalization of a deal both sides were eager to close. I would recommend Logisyn to any entrepreneur considering selling their business or buying another.”
Avi Rabinowitz • President of Dedicated Freight Systems
“I can’t imagine going through this process without Logisyn. Cris Arens and Matt Laskowski were key to my successful partnership. Not only has Logisyn exceeded my expectations but has also connected me with an incredible growing company – one that I can proudly say I am a part of. I am forever grateful to have met the Logisyn team who held my hand through this entire process and educated me on so many aspects of both logistics and banking. I loved that Logisyn was always available, professional, and personable.”
Frank D’Ambra • CEO of Aries Global Logistics
“I knew of Logisyn by reputation. After meeting their team, I felt their proven M&A track record in the logistics space would be the differentiator. We limited the search and had very specific requirements. The cultural fit for my team was critical, and we were in no hurry. NTG is a great match and we look forward to this next chapter.”
Brad Klaus • CEO of Haven, Inc.
"This transaction created a mutual solution for both Haven and FourKites to take their products to the next level. FourKites saw an opportunity with Haven to expand its offerings in the international ocean freight sector using our visibility tools. The Logisyn team was instrumental in negotiating terms that were agreeable to both sides while supporting us as we went through the process. Their skill sets in logistics, technology, and deal negotiations were very helpful."
Anthony Paris • CLO of Paris Brothers
“I’ve known Cris Arens for many years, so when it came time to sell, Logisyn was the clear choice. Throughout the process, Jan, Tom, and the rest of the Logisyn team handled each step efficiently, making for a smooth transaction. Their approach to market mapping was thorough and we are confident that Allstates WorldCargo is the optimal buyer for the future of GFE.”
Andy Heller • President at Hybrid International
“The Logisyn team worked with me and guided me with consummate professionalism. They were a pleasure to work with and anyone considering such a step for their firm I highly recommend them.”
Paul Cincinello • President at WWIL
“When WWIL decided it was best to have a strategic alliance partner as all of our competitors were consolidating, we reached out to Logisyn. The Logisyn team was amazing, walking you through unfamiliar territory and preparing you for the requirements, so you can still simultaneously run your business. They managed the expectations phenomenally and anyone in the logistics industry shouldn’t consider any other firm than Logisyn’s experienced talent.”
Bob Roubitchek • Owner of International Freight Services, Inc
“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.”
Mitch Scher • Vandegrift
“I came to know Cris years ago while he was helping Vandegrift as a buyer looking to grow via acquisition. When the time came to look at long term options for the Vandegrift team and customers, I hired Logisyn to explore opportunities with potential strategic buyers. Cris and I worked very closely together and he managed a confidential and at times challenging, even difficult process. It is not easy to sell a family-owned business. Cris, a seasoned entrepreneur, understood the issues and helped me work through them. In the end, we found the right long-term partner in Maersk for our team and customers. I would recommend Logisyn to other business owners who are in the same situation.”
