Our Mission

The On Time Express mission is to build strong, lasting relationships, provide strategic logistics solutions and communicate with excellence while exceeding customers' expectations.

Our History

In 1997, the current president and CEO, Bart Wilson purchased what was then ABRE Express, a small cartage company established in 1982.

By 1998, the transition from ABRE Express to On Time Express was complete and the company began to grow. From our modest roots, On Time Express has grown in assets over 40 times while consistently maintaining excellent, personalized customer service and on – time performance. "Customer retention during this period of growth is a great source of pride and an area where we feel we are unmatched," comments Mr. Wilson.

In 2000 On Time Express opened an office in Dallas, Texas. This was a perfect fit for our expanding truckload and less than truckload operation and continues to be essential in the operation of our ever growing network.

In 2001, we expanded into Mexico by way of Tijuana and Nogales. "We listened to our customer requirements and provided seamless border movement," states Wilson. "By doing this we have provided a strategic solution to a difficult logistics challenge for many."

On Time continued its consistent pattern of growth in 2003 by joining the WCA, World Cargo Alliance. With our North American influence, we were able to expand our ocean and expedited services greatly.

2007 brought even more to On Time by strategically opening a Midwest gateway in Chicago as well as the completion of the border expansions in McAllen. 2007 also brought the development of national sales to the organization.

Opportunities continue to arise and rapid growth is once again on the horizon. Future expansion and development of our feeder network throughout the U.S. and internationally will result in growth in additional markets in the months and years to come.
