KAG takes over US-based liquid bulk transport specialist

North America’s largest tank truck transporter and logistics provider, Kenan Advantage Group (KAG), has announced the acquisition of M.C. Tank Transport (MC Tank), a diversified transportation company specializing in the delivery of liquid bulk chemicals in tankers and ISO containers.

MC Tank operates from eight terminal locations and three ISO container depots throughout the Southeast and Midwest in the United States, delivering and storing caustic soda, sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, and other specialty chemicals.



“This acquisition marks a key milestone in KAG’s continued growth and solidifies our commitment to delivering innovative, specialized solutions to our chemical customers,” underlined Charlie DeLacey, CEO of KAG. “By combining the strengths of MC Tank with our existing fleet and network, we are enhancing our capabilities to offer not only premier chemical transportation but also ISO container storage, transport, and related services to meet the evolving demands of our customers’ supply chains.”

As part of the transaction, around 175 professional drivers and 70 operational and administrative members will move to the KAG team, while the company will enhance its fleet with 100 tractors and 500 trailers/chassis.



“KAG is the perfect partner to provide MC Tank with the resources and know-how to expand our footprint, capabilities, technology, and services,” stated MC Tank’s President, Michael Anderson. “We are far from done implementing our vision and accomplishing the goals we have set for our organization. We are tremendously excited for the opportunity to join the KAG team.”
