Dear Mr. Jacon,
As a customer of Flinch West you may have read that East Bay Express has just completed a successful bid for our parent company in Toronto, GFT (Gironde-Flinch Transport) Group. In October of last year East Bay Express made an offer to acquire the shares from GFT shareholders. East Bay Express has now secured in excess of 98% of GFT Group’s shares, allowing them to complete its acquisition of GFT Group’s operation in Toronto.
The Flinch West Directors believe this is a good outcome for our customers and our employees. It will enhance our ability to support existing customers and add new clients. East Bay Express is a respected company with its headquarters in Chicago and it understands our market and our customers well.
It is important to emphasize what is not changing. The high standards for which Flinch West is famous will be maintained. The freight regulations will also remain the same, so the recent change in the GFT Group ownership has no impact upon you. We remain committed to dependable transportation service, and be assured that all of our customers’ deliveries will arrive in a safe and timely manner.
It means Flinch West will continue to provide and maintain the most reliable and cost-effective courier services for our extensive client base. This recent change in ownership will position Flinch West as a major company in the local transportation service field.
To answer any specific questions you may have on the change of shareholder ownership, I have enclosed a leaflet that can answer the most frequently asked questions. Alternatively you can contact Paul Laphen who has been personally assigned to your account at 1-403¬284-2162 and he will be pleased to answer any questions.
Yours sincerely,
R.Cory Giudice
