Welcome to American Transport, Inc.
Overview
American Transport, Inc. (“ATI”) commenced operations on January 1, 1986. Licensed by the Federal Highway Administration, ATI transports general commodities in 49 of the United States and all of the Canadian provinces.
ATI was formed by the management team that operated the Special Commodities Division of Carolina Freight Carriers Corporation from 1976 to 1985. Many members of that team continue to be instrumental in the day-to-day operation of ATI. The company was acquired by Transport Investments, Inc. on January 1, 1989 and represents its largest holding in terms of revenue. Further, ATI has been an acquisition platform for companies not meeting TII’s stand-alone investment criteria.
ATI specializes in the movement of truckload and less-than-truckload shipments, primarily by flatbed and specialized equipment. It serves a variety of customers from the Fortune 500 to smaller manufacturers and resellers. Major commodities moved under ATI’s common, contract or property brokerage authority include steel, lumber and building products, machinery & equipment, foodstuffs and other general commodities. The company also specializes in the movement of products for the wind turbine industry. We believe that ATI is one of the leading companies serving this industry today.
Our management team is comprised of some of the most experienced in the transportation industry. To learn more, contact Douglas B. McAdams, President at (412) 490-6030 or David Hartman, Vice President Operations at (412) 490-6013.
