TORONTO, ONTARIO and ONTARIO, CALIFORNIA (November 30, 2007) — Vitran Corporation Inc. (NASDAQ: VTNC, TSX: VTN), a North American transportation and logistics firm, today announced the purchase of retail supply chain management specialist Las Vegas/L.A. Express, Inc. (LVLA) (www.lvla.com), based in Ontario, CA. The acquisition consideration was approximately $12.6 million in cash, including assumed debt of approximately $2 million and $4.35 million of contingent consideration, based on achievement of future performance metrics. The transaction closed today, November 30th.

“The accretive acquisition of LVLA, a key addition to Vitran’s growing logistics footprint, is an excellent strategic, geographic and financial fit for our organization,” stated Vitran President and Chief Executive Officer Rick Gaetz.

“LVLA’s management expertise and retail-oriented clientele matches Vitran’s logistics focus. Vitran Logistics has developed an expertise in the retail supply chain and LVLA’s retail client base augments our initiatives to support and re-engineer North American supply chain requirements. Their California base of operations is very appealing as we focus on developing off-shore opportunities through the Port of L.A. in a similar fashion to our successes on the Canadian West Coast. We look forward to working closely with owners Ronald and Michael Adley, who will help ensure a smooth integration, and we enthusiastically welcome their entire 235 employee workforce to the Vitran family,” concluded Mr. Gaetz.

LVLA adds 470,000 square feet of supply chain logistics space under management, bringing Vitran’s total to 1,240,000 square feet throughout the U.S. and Canada. LVLA currently operates from six leased facilities. In addition to its Ontario, CA headquarters, the company has distribution centers in San Diego and Chino, CA, Las Vegas, NV, Phoenix, AZ and Albuquerque, NM.
