Our Company

When customers see the iconic J.B. Hunt scroll, they know what to expect. But you don’t become an industry-leading logistics company overnight. We’ve invested in our people, technology and capacity so that we can deliver excellence.


    A Legacy of Impact

    We got our start with five trucks, seven trailers and Mr. Hunt’s vision to create something big. We’ve grown a lot since 1961, but our legacy of innovation and impact lives on. Together, we’re working toward our vision to create the most efficient transportation network in North America.

     

    "To get where we’re gonna go, it takes all of us. I can’t do it, you can’t do it, but we can do that."

    Mr. Hunt
    Founder
     

    Our Vision

    Our vision is to create the most efficient transportation network in North America. This statement keeps us focused on the future and what we’re aspiring for as a company. It encourages us to not only innovate solutions that make our company better, but to find ways to improve the greater supply chain. 

     

    Our Core Foundations

    After more than 60 years in transportation, we’ve found everything we do comes back to these core foundations: 

    People you trust. 
    Technology that empowers. 
    Capacity to deliver. 

    Investing in these areas fuels our growth as a company so we can continue to innovate and drive transportation forward.

     

    Our Mission
