Michael Andlauer has 40 years of experience in the Canadian transportation and logistics industry, which began when he was attending York University and working part-time at Day and Ross Transport. He founded ATS Andlauer Transportation Services Inc. in 1991 (now operating as ATS Healthcare) and ALS in 1994 (now operating as Accuristix). Mr. Andlauer is also the Founder of Bulldog Capital Partners Inc., a Toronto-based merchant bank focused on private equity investments and advisory services for growth oriented businesses and serves as the President and Chief Executive Officer of AMG, a company he founded in 1994 to manage and operate transportation and logistics companies in Canada that are focused in the healthcare sector. Andlauer Healthcare Group Inc.  was formed as a subsidiary of AMG in 2019 to bring several specialized healthcare supply chain companies together under one entity. Following the initial public offering, AMG continues to hold a controlling interest in AHG. 

Mr. Andlauer has a passion for hockey. He has been involved with the Hamilton Bulldogs, an American Hockey League franchise, since 2003, first as a co-owner, then as sole owner up until 2015, winning the Calder Cup in 2007. In 2015, Mr. Andlauer sold the franchise to the Montreal Canadiens and purchased the Ontario Hockey League’s Belleville Bulls. He relocated the club to Hamilton to play under the Hamilton Bulldogs brand, and proceeded to win two OHL Championships. In 2009, he purchased a share of the Montreal Canadiens and Bell Centre and Gillett Entertainment Group (now called evenko) as part of a group headed by Geoff Molson. 

Born in Toulouse, France, and raised by his Mom in Montreal,  Michael Andlauer currently resides in Oakville with his wife of 27 years, Lucie. Lucie is the CEO of Subterra Renewables, a company providing geothermal energy solutions. Together they have raised three children: Michael Jr., Alexie, and Mathew. Among his many community contributions, Michael is founder and chair of the Bulldog Foundation, an initiative that helps enrich the lives of youth in the greater Hamilton area which includes a breakfast program serving 21 inner city schools.
