Transaction Overview

Industria Partners LLC is pleased to announce the sale of R&A Trucking Company (“R&A”) to RoadOne IntermodaLogistics, a national intermodal, transload, and logistics company with financial backing from their equity partner at Nonantum Capital Partners. Industria Partners acted as the strategic advisor to R&A for the transaction.

Founded in 1972 and based in Oakland, California, R&A Trucking is an integrated logistics company providing trucking, drayage, brokerage, and transloading with 370,000 sqft of warehouse space. R&A is a specialized operation handling a significant portion of the aluminum coils and rolled stock inventory that feeds the automotive industry in the Western United States.

“I engaged the Industria team for their expertise and process discipline. Industria presented us with multiple viable options, provided real advice and then helped us navigate the transaction process. Ultimately, R&A aligned with a great industry partner on terms that were better than I had expected.

If anyone were to ask me who I’d use to sell a business, I would without a doubt recommend Industria Partners. The process is stressful enough but having a team like Industria allowed me to continue to run my business. They were on my team from start to finish and I couldn’t have picked a better partner!”
