Bill Yarn · four decades in Canadian freight
Moving the industry forward
One career spent keeping North America’s goods on the move, by road, by rail, by sea.
Four companies. Every mode that moves. One man who built them.
Veritas Distribution
Founder
Where it began. A distribution company built on one word: truth.
National Fast Freight
Founder
LTL and intermodal, from pool-car shipping to a network reaching coast to coast.
Fast Freight International
Co-Founder
Freight across oceans, to Europe and the Far East.
Fast Links
Founder · Today
Still on the road: a third-party logistics company moving freight across Canada and the USA.
Do what you said you would. Move what you were trusted to move.
The man behind the freight
Four decades around trucks, containers and locomotives, and a lasting weakness for a well-painted classic car. Dedication, honesty, an eye for the craft. The same in the yard as on the wall of his office.
