"We are excited to combine the resources, service and strong brand promise of these two companies to form a stronger market presence that will offer a broader range of products and technical service with the UniCarriers brand," said Peter Kruse, president, UniCarriers Americas Corporation. Kruse is leading the management team of the new entity.
