Interesting follow up news to the Jack Cooper transport company going out of business

Back in early January, Ford terminated its contract with the transport company Jack Cooper, with which it had previously enjoyed a relationship with for roughly 40 years as its second-largest customer. 

That move prompted Jack Cooper to try and renegotiate its contract with General Motors, its biggest customer, but those talks quickly broke down and led to Ford’s cross-town rival backing out as well.

 As one might expect, those moves led to the demise of Jack Cooper, leaving its 2,500 employees without jobs – but now, some of them are back to hauling Ford vehicles once again, just a couple of months later.
