Central Refrigerated was the company formerly known as Dick Simon Transportation. The founder of Swift Transportation - Jerry Moyes - became the primary shareholder of that company. Dick Simon is known to some as the company whose driver drove his truck up the steps of the California state capitol in 2001, killing himself in the process. Under Moyes' leadership as the primary shareholder, Dick Simon Transportation became Central Refrigerated, and operated independently of Swift Transportation, although they did acquire their trucks through Swift Leasing. Swift bought all shares of Central Transportation in August of 2013, and Central Refrigerated is now an integral part of Swift Transportation.

What trucking comp did swift trans recently acquire?
While there really isn't much of a publicly available database on this, the most major buyout Swift Transportation made was of M.S. Carriers in 2000 or 2001, IIRC. Another company they've bought out was Merit. They bought out Fulton Transportation in the early 90s, as well. Central Freight and Central Refrigerated aren't owned by Swift - they're privately owned companies which are owned in their entirety by Jerry Moyes, the CEO of Swift Transportation (whereas Swift Transportation is a publicly traded company). DSW trucks are often seen pulling Swift refrigerated trailers - DSW (Digby Southwest) is not owned by Swift - it is a fleet which leases onto Swift Transportation.

Swift Transportation Co Inc acquisitions?
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.
