MISSISSAUGA, ON – Polaris Transportation Group has named David Bush vice president of business processes. In this newly created position, Bush will focus on improvements to the U.S. infrastructure for the fast growing transborder LTL carrier.

Larry Cox, president of the Canadian-based operation, said the company needed a senior person with a strong U.S. carrier background.

“David Bush came to us through our partnership with his former employer,” he said. “He’s great with detail and has a comprehensive blend of ops, sales, technology and carrier relationship experience. He is the ideal candidate to fine tune and expand the U.S markets we serve.”

Bush, who will start with Polaris on Dec. 8, has held senior roles at A. Duie Pyle, Translogistics, and Land Air Express.

In his new position, he will travel extensively to assess and implement changes designed to boost Polaris’s position in the U.S.

“I’ve been told I’m relentless when I come across something that isn’t working like it should,” Bush said. “I have always been able to see the broken links in processes and operational procedures and I don’t give in until they’re fixed and working properly.”

He resides in Birdsboro, Penn.

Founded in 1994, Polaris is best known for its scheduled LTL service between Canada and the USA, specializing in the shipment of dry goods.
