Kleysen Group

Company History: The Kleysen Group of Companies, based in Winnipeg, Manitoba was founded in 1928. Today the group serves our bulk, deck, intermodal and multi-commodity distribution customers in Canada and the United States. We've become a seamless extension of our customers' businesses through a combination of road and rail expertise. Among our many long-term customers, we have earned a reputation as "The Transportation Solutions Company". More than seven decades of trucking, rail, logistics and commodity-handling experience, combined with thorough research into each customer's unique needs, markets and competitive challenges, have built this reputation.

With continuing global competition and rapidly-changing market conditions, "customer service" is often the main distinction between one company and another. Kleysen provides customers with a competitive advantage by designing cost-effective transportation and distribution system solutions built for today's expectations of unparalleled customer service. Innovative trailing equipment, state-of-the-art tractors and the latest technologies have created our 21st century transportation and logistics company. Accurate and timely information processing is just as important to us as delivering customer freight on time. Two-way satellite communications/tracking in our trucks, EDI and Internet-based order-tracing systems are among the leading-edge communications tools we use to ensure our customers know where their products are at all times.

Editor's note: this company seems to be frequently misspelled as "Kleyson Group".
