THOMAS Warren Jr. is proud to represent the third generation of Warrens to lead Al Warren Oil and Altom Transport. He's also determined to make sure he's not the last. "This business means everything to me," Warren said. "It's something that my grandfather and my father gave everything to build. "They laid a great foundation, and I plan on passing it to my sons." To do so, he has to finish guiding the family's companies through a trying era defined by a global pandemic that forced an estimated one-third of all small businesses in the U.S. to close their doors-many of which never reopened. So far, so great for the still-growing group of tank truck companies. Transportation challenges exacerbated by the ongoing health crisis include driver and mechanic shortages, supply-chain constraints, and cybersecurity breaches. But Al Warren and Altom not only evaded those traps, they thrived, adding two new locations in Louisiana, and growing combined revenues by 20% in 2021. |
