DistTech is an established leader in dedicated contract and common carriage for
bulk liquid commodities, whose initial operations began in the early 1930s.
What began with one pick-up truck, developed into an international motor carrier
that
is one of the largest in the tank-truck industry today.
The original Company
was founded by John Manfredi and his son, Frank, transporting milk from farms
in Northeast Ohio to dairies in Cleveland. The Company was incorporated
in 1949 as Manfredi Motor Transit Co. and soon became an interstate carrier
for Cleveland-based companies.
Since deregulation of the trucking industry in
1980, DistTech has grown extensively. Not only has the Company expanded its
core base of business in the liquid
bulk chemical and food grade hauling, but has also expanded into dry bulk
and dry
freight hauling. Plus, the Company has acquired businesses and added affiliate
companies to maintain its continuous growth.
In 2004, the Company officially
changed its name to Distribution Technologies, Inc. -- later shortened to
DistTech -- to better reflect the firm's core
capability of merging reliable transportation service with real-time
information technology.
Today, the Company is truly an international provider
of bulk logistics services with more than 25 locations in North America strategically
located
to meet the
ever-expanding needs of our broad base of customers.
