Livingston’s latest acquisition strengthens their U.S. air/sea customs brokerage and international forwarding platform in the United States, establishes a presence for the company in Dallas and expands its growing operations in Houston. It also gives Livingston additional expertise in international logistics management services to offer full sourcing, shipping and other logistics services to clients.

“This is an exciting growth story for us,” said Holland Evans, president of Evans and Wood & Co., Inc. “We are thrilled to become part of Livingston International and to be able to offer expanded services to our customers as well as career opportunities for our staff.
