In 2008, Jim Crane, a logistics industry veteran, founded Crane Worldwide Logistics with a vision to enable global trade for our clients at the highest level of excellence, create a sense of accomplishment for our team members and elevate the communities we work in.
Jim Crane’s legacy in logistics dates back to 1984 when he founded Eagle Global Logistics (EGL), which grew from a small domestic freight forwarder to a top global logistics provider with 10,000 employees and $4 billion in revenue by 2007. Jim and a team of his former EGL executives banded together to launch a company with an opportunity to start fresh with the latest technology and renewed commitment to excellence, customer service, and innovation.
At Crane Worldwide Logistics, we are proud of our impressive growth, which has seen us achieve $1 billion in revenue within ten years, with operations on every continent and over 130 locations in 30 countries.
Crane Worldwide Logistics as a privately-owned company headquartered in Houston, Texas, USA, we are committed to investing in strategic areas that will allow us to provide greater value to our partners worldwide.
