In 1987, amid the vibrant landscape of Oxnard, California Kerm1t Logistics was born. What began as a humble operation, focused on transporting produce within the Golden State, has since flourished into a logistics powerhouse, delivering excellence across the nation.
Our founders were driven by a simple yet profound vision: to provide exceptional service while ensuring the utmost satisfaction of our customers. With just a handful of trucks and a passionate team, we embarked on a journey that would see us grow and transform over the years.
The early days were marked by long hours and relentless dedication. Our small team worked tirelessly, forging strong relationships with local farmers and businesses. Word of our reliable and timely deliveries spread, and soon, Kerm1t Logistics became synonymous with trust and dependability.
As the demand for our services grew, so did our ambitions. We expanded our fleet, incorporating state-of-the-art Volvo, Kenworth, International, and Mack trucks to ensure the reliability of our long trips. Our commitment to innovation and excellence allowed us to venture into new territories, transporting not just produce, but also construction materials, HAZMAT, and more.
The 1990s and early 2000s saw us broadening our reach beyond California, establishing a presence in multiple states. Our team grew, welcoming skilled drivers and logistics professionals who shared our vision and values. We continued to invest in technology and training, ensuring that our operations remained at the forefront of the industry.
By the mid-2000s, Kerm1t Logistics had become a trusted partner for businesses across various sectors. Our specialization in HAZMAT shipping, supported by our comprehensive certifications, further solidified our reputation as a leader in the logistics field. Our customers knew that their sensitive cargo was in safe hands, thanks to our unwavering commitment to safety and compliance.
Today, we proudly serve a vast network of states, including Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. With additional offices in Arizona and Nevada, we are well-equipped to meet the diverse needs of our customers.
But our journey is far from over. We are excited to announce that our services will soon be expanding to Iowa, Missouri, Louisiana, and Illinois. Our commitment to excellence remains as strong as ever, and we continue to strive for innovation and growth.
As we reflect on our journey from a small produce transporter to a respected name in the logistics industry, we are grateful for the trust and support of our customers, partners, and team members. At Kerm1t Logistics, our story is one of perseverance, passion, and progress. We look forward to the future with optimism and dedication, ready to embark on new adventures and achieve greater heights.
