Initially named Consolidated Truck Lines, this company grew from a one-truck operation into one of the largest long-haul carriers in the United States by the early 1980s, and became one of the few freight transportation firms to originate in the West and successfully expand eastward.〔()〕 Consolidated headquarters were moved to the San Francisco Bay Area in the 1950s. Long-haul services were spun off under the name Consolidated Freightways in 1996.〔(Consolidated Freightways: Information from Answers.com )〕 Con-way's LTL service is now called Con-way Freight; other components are Menlo Worldwide Logistics, Con-way Truckload and Con-way Multimodal. On April 18, 2006, the company changed its name from CNF, Inc. to Con-way, Inc, and the company's NYSE stock ticker was changed from CNF to CNW. In August 2007, Con-way acquired Contract Freighters, Inc. (CFI). Contract Freighters was a privately held North American truckload carrier based in Joplin, Missouri, in a transaction valued at $750 million. Founded in 1951, CFI operates over 2,600 tractors and more than 7,000 trailers, with more than 3,000 employees including approximately 2,500 drivers that serve customers throughout North America. Con-way moved its headquarters from San Mateo, California to Ann Arbor, Michigan in 2011.〔(Q-and-a: Why Con-way Inc. moved its headquarters from Silicon Valley to Ann Arbor area )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Con-way」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
