Mactrans Logistics made the 2018 Growth 500 list with five-year revenue growth of 131%.
“The companies on the 2018 Growth 500 are truly remarkable.

Mactrans is honoured to be on the Growth 500 ranking for a third consecutive year,” says President Joel MacKay. “This was a very exciting year for Mactrans. We moved into larger offices in both Toronto and Montreal and grew to over 20 employees and sales agents. I’d like to thank our loyal customers and carriers because without them this expansion would not have been possible.
