Harris Transport

In the Canadian heartland of Winnipeg, a specialized trucking company, R.S. Harris Transport, began a journey that would span over three decades. The firm established itself as a key player in open deck transportation, building a reputation for moving essential goods for the steel, agriculture, and construction industries across North America. With a focus on a specific niche, the company grew its fleet to include 50 company tractors and around 165 trailers. Under the leadership of Kyle Harris and his team, the company became known for its solid customer service and developed into a formidable competitor in the Canadian trucking industry. By 2021, Harris Transport was a well-oiled machine, generating annualized revenues in excess of $25 million. The company's consistent performance and established name did not go unnoticed. On July 1, 2021, a major event unfolded: Harris Transport was acquired by Mullen Group Ltd., one of Canada's largest logistics providers. This move marked a significant milestone, integrating Harris into Mullen's Gardewine Group of Companies. The acquisition was not just an exit, but a strategic play to enhance the capabilities of the larger entity, leveraging Harris's expertise and assets for future growth.
