Transportation, Trucking & Logistics · Surrey, BC

Sell your trucking & logistics business in Surrey

Canadian trucking and logistics is a sustained M&A hotbed. Driver shortages, capacity constraints, and PE consolidation have lifted multiples. Owner-operator companies still face transferability challenges, but well-run companies with 10+ drivers sell at 3x–5x EBITDA, more for specialty (oversize, hazmat, refrigerated).

In Surrey: Newton, Whalley, Guildford, Cloverdale, Fleetwood, and South Surrey each have distinct business ecosystems. Trucking and logistics dominate; food production, distribution, and trades are deep secondary markets.
