(OTC Bulletin Board: RLGT - News), a domestic and international freight forwarding and logistics company, today announced further gains in the growth of its Adcom network in the mid-Atlantic as a result of an acquisition completed by one of its independent agent owners that operates within the Adcom network. Adcom-DCA's independent agent owner, Bonnie Knoedler recently acquired the Baltimore, Maryland, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Washington, D.C. based operations of ESI Global Logistics.

Ms. Knoedler will lead the Adcom regional offices, servicing a diversified base of domestic and international customers. I am excited about the synergies that ESI Global Logistics brings to our thriving operations," said Knoedler. "ESI has always been a strong competitor, and it makes sense to leverage our combined strength and the Radiant platform to provide immediate benefit to our current and potential customers."

Radiant's Chairman and CEO, Bohn Crain, remarked, "We are very proud to support Bonnie and her team in their recent acquisition and know that the ESI team will make an immediate and positive contribution to our organization moving forward. We are continuously looking for ways to support our independent agent owners in growing their businesses within the larger Radiant family of companies. It is not often that it takes the form of an 'acquisition' sponsored by one of our independent owners; my congratulations to Bonnie and her team!"

Crain continued: "We remain bullish on our opportunity for continued organic growth available through the expansions of our agent-based operations as people look to align themselves with a strong partner in this difficult market environment. We also believe that we remain uniquely positioned to bring value to our network participants: (1) leveraging our status as a public company to provide our partners with an opportunity to share in the value that they help create, (2) providing a robust platform in terms of people, process and technology which is translating into better purchasing power with our vendors and more sophisticated e-business solutions for our customers and (3) offering a unique opportunity in terms of succession planning and liquidity for our station owners."
