Pacer’s President Steps Down; Orris to Take Intermodal Post

Transportation and logistics firm Pacer International said Wednesday that its president, Tom Shurstad, is leaving the company and that its retired chief executive officer, Don Orris, will become president of its intermodal segment.

Orris will report directly to CEO Mike Uremovich, Pacer said in a statement.

Shurstad is leaving “to pursue other interests,” the statement said.

Pacer is ranked No. 15 on the Transport Topics 100 listing of U.S. and Canadian for-hire carriers.
