Diverse Logistics Expands Its Reach with Massiano Logistics Acquisition

Diverse Logistics, a significant player in the logistics landscape and an Argosy Private Equity portfolio company, recently unveiled a strategic acquisition that promises to bolster its operations and expand its footprint. On June 20, 2025, the company announced its acquisition of Massiano Logistics, a move that is set to enhance the range of services offered by Diverse and further solidify its position in the logistics sector.

Founded in 2018, Massiano Logistics is headquartered in Orlando, Florida, and has carved a niche for itself by specializing in white glove delivery, warehousing, and distribution of heavy goods. Their expertise particularly shines in the domain of high-quality furniture, a sector that demands precise handling and a keen understanding of customer needs. With operations spanning several states, including Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and New Jersey, Massiano employs a non-asset logistics approach, utilizing a network of dedicated delivery teams. This allows them to serve diverse clients ranging from third-party logistics (3PL) providers and furniture retailers to interior designers.

The acquisition marks the second strategic move by Diverse Logistics following Argosy’s investment in May 2023. John Ruskai, CEO of Diverse, expressed enthusiasm about the merger, indicating that Massiano's seasoned leadership and robust industry knowledge would significantly contribute to Diverse’s growth and deliver top-tier services to customers. Ruskai stated, “We are very excited about the merging of Massiano Logistics into the Diverse family,” highlighting the value that Massiano’s expertise will bring to their final mile delivery network.

As part of this new chapter, Alex Rodriguez, Founder and CEO of Massiano Logistics, echoed similar sentiments, expressing his eagerness to leverage their combined strengths. He stated, “I'm looking forward to leveraging our collective strengths and resources to scale our current regional footprint nationally with even more efficient and reliable services to our customers.” This strategic acquisition not only amplifies Massiano’s resources but also aligns well with the overall growth strategy of Diverse Logistics.

Industry expert Seth Wilson, a Partner at Argosy Private Equity, reinforced the strategic significance of the acquisition. He noted, “Massiano is an excellent strategic fit for the Diverse platform.” The company’s established presence in the Southeastern and Mid-Atlantic markets complements Diverse’s operational landscape, paving the way for opportunities to enhance regional density and service offerings.

Diverse Logistics itself, originally founded in 1998 and based in Tampa, Florida, is recognized as a leading third-party logistics (3PL) provider specializing in final mile delivery and installations for oversized items. Its non-asset logistics model boasts a network of over 500 local delivery teams, along with a growing number of warehousing and cross-dock facilities. The company caters to logistics needs for everyday household goods, including appliances, electronics, furniture, mattresses, and fitness equipment.

This acquisition is poised to not only enhance the operational capacities of Diverse Logistics but also ensure that it stays competitive within the ever-evolving logistics market. As the industry continues to grow, combining resources and expertise becomes a pivotal strategy for success. Diverse Logistics aims to maximize this acquisition, anticipating further innovations and improvements in service delivery.
