ABOUT THE ACQUISITION
Joseph DeSaye, a founding member of FMI International, and Taylored, joined together to acquire the US operations of Toll Global Logistics. Founded nearly thirty years ago, Taylored Services has grown to be an award-winning Top 100 3PL. FMI International, founded in 1979 by Ernest DeSaye, began with freight forwarding from the country of manufacture, primarily Asia, into the United States with a wide variety of services including trans-loading, distribution center bypass, warehousing, pick-and-pack and local and long-distance transportation prior to their sale to KRG Capital in 2003 and eventually to Toll Group in 2010.
