We are committed to providing stable and financially sound ownership to our operating companies, including the capital for reinvestment and growth.

But our most valuable asset is not a truck, tugboat, airplane, or ship–it’s the people who work throughout our family of companies. As shareholders, we value the contribution of every employee and are always seeking to grow our teams with people who share our values and take pride in the work they do.
Our values are key to our success and unite our operations under the same mission:
