“Both companies have a successful history of Dedicated operational excellence, a reputation for superior customer service and a common foundation of core values – so our cultures are an excellent match,” said M&M Transport Founder Mark Warsofsky. “Now, as a wholly owned subsidiary of Schneider, M&M Transport will continue to leverage our strengths while capitalizing on Schneider’s broad capabilities and resources to support continued growth and the consistent, reliable service that our customers expect from M&M Transport.”

The acquisition is expected to be immediately accretive to Schneider’s earnings per share. M&M Transport financial results will be reported in Dedicated operations as part of the Truckload segment beginning in the third quarter of 2023.
