Houston and Boston. He envisions further
expansions in Canada, which will include
the opening of offices in Ottawa.

logistics and transport management servic-

such a high degree of efficiency and cost ef-
fectiveness that customers have come to ap-
preciate the unique capability, if not savings.
While his industry endures with
daily encounters of demanding conditions
wrought from all form of weather, load and
geographic variance, coupled by the in-
creased incorporation of highly sophisticat-
ed technologies to respond to such demands,
Jasper astutely offers a fundamental, perhaps
foolproof, formula for how to best grow a
business, “Our plan is to keep it simple, prac-
tical and flexible.”
