This page highlights recent M&A in the Logistics & Distribution sector, with activity concentrated across U.S. markets from the Northeast to the Gulf Coast and Sun Belt. Transactions range from add-on technology tuck‑ins and software divestitures to platform mergers and regional rollups.

Buyers include strategic operators and financial sponsors — for example, CargoSprint acquiring Dray Dog for landside execution, the merger of Diverse Logistics and Pulse Final Mile to scale big‑and‑bulky final‑mile services, and platform expansions such as Allstates WorldCargo adding customs brokerage through Promptus, LLC. Common themes are technology integration (TMS, AI document automation), broadened service suites (warehousing, customs, FF&E/installation), and U.S. geographic expansion.

What Stands Out

  • Repeat buyers and investors show up across deals — examples include Audax Private Equity, Wind Point Partners, and Palm Beach Capital.
  • Technology tuck‑ins and divestitures are frequent: AI and automation (e.g., OTR Solutions acquiring Peruse Technology) and TMS transfers (e.g., Tenet acquiring Pallet’s TMS business).
  • Service‑line expansion is common: last‑mile and big‑and‑bulky final‑mile scaleups (the Diverse Logistics/Pulse Final Mile combination), added customs brokerage (Allstates WorldCargo / Promptus, LLC) and on‑demand warehousing (ShipTime / Warehowz).
  • Deals mix non‑asset and asset strategies: non‑asset final‑mile platforms and software integrations sit alongside asset‑backed capacity deals (e.g., PX Holdings Inc. adding Freight Exchange of North America).
