As we mark the 30th anniversary of ACT Fulfillment, I am filled with immense pride and gratitude. What began as a small venture with big dreams has blossomed into a thriving business that has stood the test of time, thanks to the unwavering support of our valued customers and the relentless dedication of our team.
Reflecting on the past three decades, it is astounding to consider the milestones we have achieved together. From our modest beginnings in Long Beach, where our journey began with All Cartage Transportation, to our expansion into new markets and the diversification of our offerings, each step has been a testament to our commitment to excellence and innovation.
Our success is not measured solely by our financial achievements but also by the strong relationships we have built along the way. We have been fortunate to serve a community that appreciates the quality and care we put into our work. Our clients have not just been patrons but partners in our growth, providing valuable feedback and encouragement that have shaped our path.
I would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to every employee/owner in this ESOP, past and present, who has contributed their talent and effort to our company. Your hard work and passion are the cornerstones of our success. Together, we have created a culture of respect, integrity, and teamwork that will continue to be the foundation of our future endeavors.
As we look forward, we are excited about the opportunities that lie ahead. We remain committed to adapting to the ever-changing landscape of the logistics industry, embracing new technologies, and upholding the high standards that our customers expect from us. Please join us in celebrating this significant milestone! Cheers to the next 30 years!

We have differentiated our company from the competition by creating an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) which has enhanced our long standing culture of employee engagement. Compelling research continues to highlight that employee ownership can be a powerful tool that yields enhanced performance especially when paired with an “ownership culture”.
Our “ownership culture” has not only improved the team’s short-term performance but also helps increase employee commitment. In fact, our ESOP commitment has shown to spur innovation. These qualitative benefits all contribute to ACT’s success for both our employees as well as our customers. As the research shows, forming an “ownership culture” creates a win-win-win situation; ownership, employees, and the customers are all better off. The success of our ESOP ensures that “We deliver what others promise.”
