About Mitgo
Founded in 2006, Mitgo Inc. is a full-service transportation consulting firm built on one competitive advantage: network connections that put you in the room with the executives at many of North America's leading carriers.
Who we are
We connect shippers directly with carriers, manage your relationships with transportation providers, conduct in-depth supply chain analysis and design, and work within your organization to attract, retain, and motivate top-flight sales and marketing teams.
When you need time-sensitive answers about your freight, why wait on a sales rep? Mitgo connects you with the carrier's CEO, Owner, or President — and lets you get back to your business.
Two minutes on who we are, what we do, and how we do it.
Executive team
Our consultants carry the broad, strategic background that comes with years in the industry — and the specialized knowledge of specific sectors and supply chain components that only comes from having run them.
Prior to founding Mitgo Inc., James held executive-level positions at leading Canadian transportation firms. Most recently, he was Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Sameday Worldwide, where he achieved double-digit sales growth within his first six months. Before that, as VP of Sales & Marketing for Apps Transport Group, he secured long-term contracts with key accounts that delivered 5% growth through the recession.
James has spent over 16 years in transportation and logistics across Rail, Road, Air, and Ocean. He holds a Bachelor of Science from Western, a BA and BEd from the University of Maine, and an MBA from Athabasca University. He has also served as a Director on the Toronto Transportation Club's Board.
Matt spent 28 years flying and leading in military and commercial aviation. He entered the RCAF in 1987, was promoted to instructor pilot, and flew the CF-18 out of Cold Lake as a combat-ready element lead. After his military career he became a Transport Canada training and check captain on transport-category aircraft and held leadership positions at a commercial airline.
In 2007 he became VP Operations for an avionics company developing solutions to make air transport safer and more efficient — experience that now shapes how Mitgo moves the world's most demanding freight.
George is a Principal and Rail Practice Leader at CPCS, an international consulting firm serving the transport and power sectors — work that has taken him to Burundi, Jordan, Kenya, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, Rwanda, Tanzania, Trinidad & Tobago, Uganda, and Zambia.

He holds a Bachelor of Civil Engineering from the Technical University of Nova Scotia and an MBA from McMaster University, and is based out of Toronto.
