    Half a load is better than none for Vitran: The company gets most of its sales from its less-than-truckload (LTL) transportation business. (LTL carriers combine freight from multiple shippers into a single truckload.) Vitran -- the name is short for vital transportation -- provides LTL service in Canada and in much of the US. Besides its LTL operations, Vitran offers logistics services in the US and Canada and provides truckload freight transportation in the US. Overall, the company operates a fleet of more than 5,600 tractors, trailers, containers, and other equipment from a network of more than 135 facilities, most of which are located in the US. To read the full description, subscribe now.

    Competition

    Competitive Landscape for Vitran Corporation Inc.
    Demand is driven by consumer spending and manufacturing output. The profitability of individual companies depends on efficient operations. Large companies have advantages in account relationships, bulk fuel purchasing, fleet size, and access to drivers. Small operations can compete effectively by providing quick turnaround, serving a local market, or transporting unusually sized goods. Average annual revenue per employee is $135,000. Trucking competes with other forms of cargo transportation, including rail, air, and water. However, the shift toward intermodal transportation means that these modes of delivery are often more complementary than competitive. To read the full description, subscribe now.
