Beemac Trucking Marks 35th Anniversary
BEAVER, PA… A 35th Anniversary celebration was held on June 26th by Beemac Trucking at the historic Beaver Train Station in Beaver, Pennsylvania. Beemac employees enjoyed hors-d'oeuvres, drinks and fellowship to mark the occasion.
Beemac was founded in
1984 by Rick Macklin with a single truck.
The company has grown to 244 employees and over 450 trucks. Beemac has enjoyed substantial growth in the
past 3 years and is ranked number 19 on Transport Topic’s 2019 Top
Flatbed/Heavy Specialized Carriers List.
Beemac has also earned numerous local and regional awards for their service
to the trucking industry, as well as to their local community.
The event was
officiated by Beemac’s Director of Talent Acquisition and Development Chuck
Kuzniewski and included comments from Beemac executives and Beaver County
Commissioner Dan Camp. Beemac Logistics’ Chief Commercial Officer Mike Ceravolo
stated, “I have never been more excited about the future of our organization.”
Beemac President
Loren Dworakowski, who joined Beemac in 2009 remarked, “I am grateful that Rick
(Macklin) gave me the opportunity to join Beemac. As we grow, we will strive to create
additional opportunities for our drivers and employees.”
CEO Rick Macklin
began his commentary by stating that “35 years ago I would have never thought
that Beemac would grow to be the company it is today.” Macklin talked about the
changes that 35 years have brought, the most significant being communications
and technology. He said that 1984 was a
world of beepers and maps, evolving into bag phones and faxes with thermal
paper. Rick started as a freight agent for
a flatbed carrier before acquiring his own authority and starting Beemac
Trucking. The company had to overcome
many adversities over the years, which Rick attributes to his drivers and
employees. “I have been lucky to hire
great people and blessed to have their talents at Beemac Trucking. We are poised for a successful and prosperous
future. Our growth has also been
possible by maintaining great relationships with our customers, some of whom
have been with us for 20 years or longer.”
Primarily a flatbed carrier, the Beemac family of companies includes: Beemac Trucking; Beemac Logistics; Beemac Port Services; and BeeGreen CNG Fueling Station. The company motto is “Relationships Move Loads.”
