Marketplace
“…Understanding the business, the value proposition and the opportunity…”
THE INDUSTRY WE SERVE “…$585 billion… Trucking on average, collected 86.5% of the nations freight Bill.”
By any standard of measurement, the trucking industry continues to dominate the freight transportation market. Nearly every product consumed is transported by truck at some point in time. According to market statistics, the trucking segment hauled 67.9% or 8.9 billion tons of all freight transported in the United States. The trucking industry earned $585 billion of that amount representing 86.5% of the nation’s freight bill. Summarizing, trucking on average collected 86.5 cents on every dollar spent of freight transportation.
“Current inefficiencies within the Supply Chain sector create exceptional opportunities for Kingsley Logistics Group.”
Kingsley Logistics Group is positioned to execute the consolidation of companies that meet Kingsley roll-up criteria.
Before the motor carrier industry was deregulated in 1980, there were fewer than 20,000 interstate carriers in the United States. By the end of 2002 that number increased to more than 585,000. While there are a large number of trucking companies, the vast majority are operated as a small business. Around 93% of those companies operate with fewer than 20 trucks and approximately 80% operate six trucks or less. As a consequence, trucking is a highly fragmented industry, resulting in intense competition (in terms of price and non-price factors) and low profit margins. The recession starting in 2008 and continuing to this date, and, the extremely high cost of diesel fuel, along with the environmental restrictions these companies face has many of them looking for a “safe-harbor”. Kingsley Logistics Group is a company poised and ready to execute the consolidation of companies that meet Kingsley roll-up criteria. This sector will create exceptional opportunities for the company.
Market Reach
“Kingsley is positioned to be a true global operator.”
Trucking plays and enormous role in processing trade that flows across the northern and southern borders of our country. Canada and Mexico are among our largest trading partners, in fact trucks handle over 67% of goods (in terms of value) between the United States and Canada and more than 80% between the U.S. and Mexico.
The company is positioned to be a true global operator. Preliminary research also indicates opportunities throughout Asia and Mainland China and throughout the Pacific Rim abound for companies structured to handle their business on a door-to-door basis.
