Forbes-Hewlett Transport was founded in 1985 by George V. Stott. After growing up in the industry and driving a truck for many years, he decided to pursue his dream and form his own transport company.
From the early years of business, Forbes-Hewlett was guided by the values of safety, exceptional service, reliability, modern equipment and technology, and customer satisfaction. With several tractor-trailers, the company began specializing in moving freight cross-border between Canada and the United States. Within a few years, new equipment was added to the fleet, and a growing list of clients began to trust in the quality transportation solutions provided by Forbes-Hewlett.
Throughout the 1990's, the company continued to expand at a steady pace. New services were provided and owner operators were hired. The company also kept pace with a constantly changing, increasingly sophisticated industry. Satellite tracking equipment was put on board all trucks allowing for instant communication and tracking of shipments, and air ride tractor-trailers were added to the fleet for those sensitive, high-value goods. In 1995, Forbes-Hewlett moved to the current terminal located in Brampton, Ontario. It was renovated with the latest computer technology and security features to ensure the utmost in efficiency and reliability.
Today, the Forbes-Hewlett name is synonymous with consistent, dependable transportation services. The company provides a variety of both LTL and Truckload services between Canada and the USA. The fleet includes over 100 trucks and over 200 trailers. There are over 125 staff and drivers, many of whom have been with the company since the early years, who are dedicated to working with customers to meet and exceed their unique needs.
