Third-party logistics provider GSC Enterprises has acquired MacMillan-Piper, a Pacific Northwest-based transloader.
The acquisition bolsters GSC's portfolio with a network of rail transload facilities, additional warehousing capacity and expanded transloading capabilities with expertise in agricultural, paper, lumber, steel and dry bulk commodities, GSC officials said in a press release.
Financial terms were not disclosed.
The acquisition strengthens GSC's service offerings in the Pacific Northwest market by adding five warehouse facilities encompassing over 380,000 square feet with 80 rail-car spots and more than 100 dock doors, company officials said.
BNSF Railway Co. and Union Pacific Railroad serve MacMillan-Piper in the Pacific Northwest.
The combined MacMillan-Piper and GSC Transport fleet will now exceed 100 trucks. Additionally, the acquisition creates a network of terminals, yards and chassis located within 2 miles of both the Seattle and Tacoma ports for GSC.
Mark Miller — previous owner, CEO and president of MacMillan-Piper — will continue to lead the MacMillan-Piper team as president and serve on GSC's executive leadership team.
