The transaction, for which financial terms remain undisclosed, is projected to add approximately 80 million Canadian dollars ($56.6 million) to Mullen Group's annual revenue. Murray Mullen, chair and senior executive officer, noted the rarity of acquiring a business with such a deep-rooted history and specialized industry expertise. This acquisition complements the services currently provided by Cole International, further diversifying the company’s supply-chain reach.

Willson International will maintain its status as a standalone business under the Mullen umbrella. The firm's Canadian operations will be integrated into the Logistics & Warehousing segment, while its U.S. presence will transition into the U.S. & International unit. The deal is slated to close during the fourth quarter.
