“We’re very excited to join Roadrunner,” Scott McLaughlin, president of Stagecoach, said. “In order to achieve our growth potential, we sought to partner with a larger organization that had the resources and personnel that could assist us in accomplishing our goals. After meeting with several members of the Roadrunner team, it was clear that we shared a very similar cultural and strategic vision. Our organization is confident that as a part of Roadrunner, we can meet and exceed our collective goals.”
