North Canton, Ohio-based KAG has expanded its dry bulk transportation services with two acquisitions, strengthening its logistics capabilities across North America.

A private equity vehicle led by Roadrunner Freight CEO Chris Jamroz bought a majority ownership stake in the less-than-truckload carrier from Elliott Investment Management.

Schneider is acquiring Baltimore-based Cowan Systems in a $390 million deal that will expand the carrier’s dedicated trucking services. The transaction is set to close by the end of 2024.
