Hard to find a listing of all of them (I've tried several times). The most famous of their acquisitions was MS Carriers. They also bought out Merit, which was one of the companies previously owned by Wal Mart. Fulton Transport was bought out by them in the early 90s. There was a company by the name of Cardinal (don't remember if it was Cardinal Transportation or Cardinal Logistics) which was bought out by Swift... there are several more, and one would probably have to contact the company directly for a complete listing (see related link).
Central Transportation and Central Refrigerated are not actually owned by Swift - they're owned by Jerry Moyes, founder and CEO of Swift, independently. Central Refrigerated was the company once known as Dick Simon Trucking, which was acquired by Moyes after one of the Dick Simon drivers drove his truck up the steps of the California state capitol.
Interstate Transportation and Blue Thunder also have some connection with Swift, although I can't say entirely what the extent of it is. Around the end of 2004, Swift Transportation sold their autohaul division to Blue Thunder... including the drivers.Aaaand... a bit of an update. Swift bought out all shares of stock in Central Transportation in August of 2013.

Did JBS Buy Swift Transportation?
No, Swift Transportation has not been bought out, and JBS doesn't have the clout to buy out Swift. The confusion comes from a story about the origins of the Swift name. Although Swift's official story on their website doesn't acknowledge this, Swift Transportation was founded before industry deregulation (which occurred in 1980). Rather than going through the hassle of obtaining operating authority on his own, he simply bought out the operating authority of an existing company, which was the trucking division of the Swift Meat Packing Company (now an integral part of JB Swift and Co., otherwise known as JBS). I cannot speak for the accuracy of this story, but it is one of the stories out here in the rumor mill, and may be the cause of your confusion as to the ownership of Swift Transportation. JBS Carriers is a truckload carrier formed under the umbrella of JB Swift and Company. It is domiciled in Greeley, Colorado (which you may know as the butt of several jokes in the TV series South Park), and has nothing to do with Swift Transportation.
