A.N. Webber to celebrate 75 years
Summary
Webber Inc. will celebrate its 75th year of business in 2022, having grown from a one truck gravel hauling side job to more than 280 employees driving 200 late model Peterbilt’s with four locations and a robust freight brokerage team. Within a few years the family business had expanded from dump box trailers to flatbed services, hauling rebar out of a local mill in Kankakee Illinois for the creation of the Interstate Highway System. In the 1980s, the company opened a terminal in McBee, S.C., and purchased Strassy Service System, which provided a larger geographic delivery capability within the state of Illinois, when freight transportation was still highly regulated for intra-state traffic. The Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 PIDP includes priorities related to job creation, climate change, and environmental justice impacts. CCI President and CEO Dan McDonough said the Keystone acquisition is highly attractive as it expands his companys transaction range in the industries it serves.
