In 2015, Fikes Truck Line, Hope, Ark., closed its doors, with many of the flatbed company's employees being absorbed by Alabama-based Blair Logistics.

It was not an acquisition, but Blair, which is based in Birmingham, Ala., will operate out of the same Arkansas terminal as Fikes did.

Blair is an owner-operator-based flatbed operation with about 400 vehicles, founded in 2009. Many of the owner-operators who were driving for Fikes are also moving over to Blair. Company officials confirmed that they were absorbing Fikes employees and drivers but because the situation was still in transition were unable to provide more details at that time.
