| 摘要： | Oh yeah, and J&M is marking 75 years as a family-owned bulk hauler in 2023. Jimmie McCIinton founded J&M in 1948 in Selma, Alabama, with a $125 loan. Harold's father, Harold Sumerford Sr., joined the company in 1961, and assumed sole ownership of J&M after McClinton's death in 1981; and the younger Harold, who joined J&M in 1978-followed by brother Peter Sumerford, J&M president, in 1989-rose to CEO in 2002. The carrier, now headquartered in Birmingham, Alabama, today boasts 11 terminals, including sister company TransChem USA, and a growing fleet of 480 trucks and 880 tank trailers. But the immediate past American Trucking Associations chairman and former National Tank Truck Carriers and GMTA chair is too busy securing his company's future to waste time reflecting on the past. Fortunately, Bulk Transporter was able to catch up with the tireless 62-year-old after NTTC's 2023 Annual Conference to talk about the milestone anniversary, as well as the impact of COVID-19, how the tank truck industry's trade association is doing, and his plan to set up J&M for another 75 years. Questions and answers are edited for length and clarity. |
