When the trucking company his grandfather founded encountered competitive pressures, deregulation, NAFTA and escalating union costs, Bob's father transformed the family business into a warehouse and 3PL operation. Faced with complex requirements from new customers, Bob made the bold decision to replace home-grown systems with an off-the-shelf solution capable of interfacing with the company's Microsoft accounting platform.

This "out-of-the-box" thinking allowed the new 3PL to "leap frog" competition by offering services and data others couldn't, and attract new customers enabling Bob to prepare his family's business for another generation of responsible profits. As a result, today this family enables millions of Americans to bring home the household products they need.

Honoring the family legacy, Bob’s son Bobby has joined the family business ensuring that this family's tradition of leadership continues into its fourth generation.
