Crowley Acquires Jarvis International Freight

Jarvis provides forwarding and logistics services in addition to other value-added capabilities, including engineering, procurement, construction support, and project management. Services also include inland, air and sea freight, as well as import Customs and documentation services. Inland freight is coordinated throughout North America by truck, rail, ship or air, and direct air shipments are made to many destinations around the world.

Ongoing projects expected to continue under Crowley include US Government export packing and freight forwarding of air and ocean shipments; drilling projects in Belize, Brazil and Madagascar; civil construction in Equatorial Guinea; and oilfield work in Algeria.

“Our acquisition of Jarvis is a unique opportunity to extend our logistics services to new industries and geographic areas,” said Tom Crowley Jr., chairman, president and CEO of Crowley. “Jarvis’s already strong client relationships and specialised knowledge combined with our experience, facilities and capabilities will prove to be an even greater resource to customers in these industries.”
