Millhouse is a true startup company, as it all began in late 2009 from a big idea with a long-term vision. Becoming just another transportation company was not an option for us. The mindset was to build a company that will not only bring immediate solutions to our local area in the Carolinas, but maintaining our vision and targets for international expansion.
The company was started in a simple home garage with just two people. We began offering logistics services on a local scale, and immediately discovered many inefficiencies in the logistics world. We witnessed a very outdated and traditional approach used on every supply chain level by big players in the industry. Their reluctance to step into the 21st century in terms of technology utilization was a great opportunity for us. We strived to discover creative solutions, be streamlined while being pragmatic, and really had our eyes wide open every step of the way. We questioned everything to determine if it was the best way to do something to avoid falling into the trap of "it’s always been done this way".
Simultaneously incorporating as much technology into our services while not losing the personal relationships with our customers and carriers was, and still is, our main goal. Just three short years into our operations, we were already covering all 48 contiguous states for our ground services, and we started to move Air shipments around the globe. Our first international office opened in Mexico, and Canada followed soon after.
We are now servicing domestic and international shipments by ground and air in many countries as a one stop solution. After many years of learning the industry, striving to improve each and every day, we have made tremendous progress and achieved great success for many of our clients. Our drivers, carriers, logistics professionals, and technological approach is what truly sets us apart and makes us a successful company.
