“Axsun is very well-managed and rapidly growing under Steve Ramescu’s leadership, using an asset-light and technologically sophisticated approach to serve a demanding Fortune 100 customer base,” stated Alain Bédard, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of TFI International.

“These impressive characteristics make Axsun a strong strategic fit for TFI International in terms of culture and operating philosophy,” he added.

Details of the terms of the transaction were not made available.
