At a Glance

Meliora Advisory’s Transportation & Logistics practice offers sell-side M&A advisory to asset-light and asset-intensive operators across freight, last-mile, 3PL, and specialty transport sectors. We’re known for helping founder-led and family-owned businesses navigate the complex buyer landscape, especially in high-fragmentation markets. Most of our clients are selling for the first time often after decades of building and we guide them through a structured process that’s grounded in sector knowledge and buyer strategy. The result: less noise, more fit, and maximum value at the finish line.
