Lynden acquires Aloha Cargo Transport's unit Northland Services

NORTHLAND Services, a Pacific carrier servicing the Seattle, Alaska and Hawaii, parent of Aloha Cargo Transport, has been acquired by the Anchorage-based Lynden family of companies for an undisclosed sum.

"Northland is a dynamic company with talented people and a great reputation," said Lynden president and CEO Jon Burdick.



"Its barge capabilities to Hawaii and Western Alaska complement Lynden's current service offerings and allow us to provide expanded services. We can now offer integrated service to more Alaska destinations, with more frequency and greater combined capabilities," he said.



Northland said its barge service from the Pacific Northwest to Hawaii enhances Lynden's current ship and air services to the islands.



Said Northland president and CEO Larry Stauffer: "Lynden provides an ideal situation to better serve our customers where we operate. Bringing two great companies together will improve service in the communities we serve."



The Lynden family of companies includes Lynden Transport LTI Inc, Milky Way, Alaska West Express, Alaska Marine Lines, Lynden Air Cargo, Brown Line LLC and Lynden International.
