History 1929 - Kildair started by specializing in road transportation via Delangis Express. 1966 - Over the course of many years and generations the company expanded.

This decade also marked the company’s expansion into general transportation. Wintergreen Transport Corporation Ltd was acquired in 1986 and the business now operates a fleet of 250 vehicles allowing Kildair to provide an effective and reliable complementary transportation service. 2007 -Kildair entered into a partnership when Sprague acquired 50% of the company. 2011 - Kildair acquired assets from Hydro-Québec in Sorel-Tracy, including seven storage tanks with 210,000 barrels of storage capacity each and a dock on the St-Lawrence Seaway increasing its storage capacity by 1.5 million barrels. 2012 - Sprague purchased the outstanding 50% of the company, resulting in 100% ownership. 2013 - Kildair entered into a long-term contract with a major integrated oil company for crude oil handling and storage utilizing the recently acquired Hydro-Quebec assets. 2014 - Kildair starts its operation of crude oil handling and storage.
