Estes expands into Pacific Northwest with acquisition of family-run company

Estes has expanded into the Pacific Northwest with the acquisition of a family-run company out of Washington. 

The press release announcing the acquisition was published on February 12th. Key Trucking is based out of Kent, Washington. 

“Our priority was finding a partner that could provide good service and expanded opportunities to our customers while being a great home for our long-term employees. Estes is both,” said Mike Castagno, owner of the family-run company Key Trucking.

Estes says that they were excited to take advantage of an opportunity when they learned that the Castagno family was looking to retire from trucking. 

“When we first learned that the Castagno family was considering retirement, we were immediately excited about the opportunity to integrate Key Trucking’s dedicated transportation network into our growing footprint,” said Bobby Speight, Corporate Vice President at Estes Logistics. “Beyond expanding our presence into the Pacific Northwest and the greater Seattle metro, this move strengthens our ability to support customers across our entire network.”
