Clarke Transport President Kevin Tait will take the reins of two additional TFI International business divisions, the company announced in a LinkedIn post.
Tait will take over leadership of Vitran Express and National Fast Freight, TFI said in the post, while continuing in his executive roles at Clarke, a TFI subsidiary. He has served as a Clarke executive for the past five years, serving as VP and general manager before becoming president in January, according to his LinkedIn.
The move consolidates TFI’s leadership of three Canada-based LTL businesses the Montreal freight giant acquired in the 2010s, as TFI plans a spinoff of Daseke and its other truckload divisions.
TFI acquired LTL carrier Clarke in 2013, bought LTL carrier Vitran in 2014 and purchased LTL intermodal brokerage National Fast Freight in 2016.
Tait’s prior roles before joining Clarke included stints at Gardewine Group, Werner Enterprises and Schneider National, according to his LinkedIn.
