Illinois-based STG Logistics announced that it will expand its intermodal network by providing service into and out of the following Canadian markets: Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Moncton, and Halifax. These additions will complement the company’s current Canadian services in the Toronto and Montreal markets.

STG Logistics will utilize its fleet of 15,000 GPS equipped 53’ intermodal containers and proprietary Rail Optimizer system to move shipments both intra-Canada and cross-border. Mexico routes will utilize the Falcon Premium and Eagle Premium services offered by the Union Pacific Railroad. Falcon Premium provides the fastest intermodal service between the Chicago and Detroit markets and the Mexican border, as well as the most direct rail route available between Canada and Mexico.

“We are excited to continue our intermodal growth by offering our best in class service to customers with Canadian opportunities,” said Geoff Anderman, STG Logistics president and chief operating officer. “As the leading provider of Port-to-Door services for containerized goods, we feel that these new lanes enhance and strengthen our industry position.”
