Transportation Consulting and Acquisition Firm, Ahern and Associates Commemorates 25 Year Anniversary
Ahern and Associates, Ltd., marks 25 years of assisting trucking, logistics and warehousing companies in improving operations, profitability and completing strategic acquisitions.
/EINPresswire.com/ Phoenix, AZ, May 3, 2012—North America's leading trucking and logistics consulting firm, Ahern and Associates, celebrates a hallmark event in serving the transportation industry for an astounding 25 years. This is an especially remarkable feat considering the often tumultuous landscape of the transportation industry which is especially sensitive to economic shifts making long term survival extremely challenging.
Phoenix based Ahern and Associates has developed a reputation throughout the years as the "go to" firm for aiding owners of trucking, logistics and warehousing companies in furthering their goals through strategic acquisitions. The firm's CEO, Andy Ahern has the distinct notoriety within the transportation industry for having the broadest base of contacts which provides him the unmatched ability to locate prospective buyers and sellers which match his clients' criteria. This unique and personal approach to business has allowed the firm to set year over year records in the number of acquisitions completed for some of the largest companies within transportation and private equity firms. In addition, Ahern possesses the unequaled ability and experience to assess a proper value for transportation companies, often used during the acquisition process or in many cases, in a court of law during bankruptcy proceedings.
Ahern and Associates has also set the benchmark for transportation companies looking to streamline operations and increase cash flow while improving employee performance and bottom line profitability. Ahern takes pride in their ability to "right the ship" of failing trucking and logistics companies, often turned to when all other options have been expended.
Ahern and Associates has also been publicly recognized as an early adopter of technology within transportation. Ahern utilizes social media, has a respected online podcast and has an impressive 450,000 weekly subscribers to their "Ahern Advisory" transportation newsletter.
