History

HWC Logistics traces its roots back to 1981 when our founder, Mike Owens, established the company as a humble courier service with just one vehicle. Over the years, fueled by a passion for excellence and a commitment to customer satisfaction, HWC Logistics has evolved into a prominent player in the Atlanta logistics industry.

In 1986, recognizing the growing demand for comprehensive logistics solutions, we expanded our services to include Container Freight Station (CFS) operations. This strategic move allowed us to better serve our clients by offering a wider range of services tailored to their needs.

In 1993, HWC Logistics was honored to be awarded the first and only CES contract in the bustling port of Atlanta. This achievement not only solidified our position as a trusted partner in the region but also demonstrated our unwavering dedication to delivering top-notch services.

In 1999, HWC Logistics expanded its service offerings once again by venturing into the transportation market in the Southeast region.  This strategic move allowed us to further enhance our capabilities to provided end-to-end logistics solutions.

In 2012, as part of our ongoing commitment to innovation and growth, we underwent a rebranding initiative, transitioning from Hartsfield Warehouse Company to HWC Logistics. This rebranding reflected our evolution into a comprehensive logistics provider while paying homage to our roots in the Atlanta market.

In 2021, HWC Logistics reached a significant milestone as we celebrated our 40th anniversary.  We are filled with gratitude for the trust and support of our clients, partners and the communities we serve.

Today, HWC Logistics boasts a combined 600,000 square-foot warehouse footprint in the Atlanta market, a testament to our continued expansion and success. None of this would be possible without the dedication and hard work of our amazing team, whose passion for excellence drives us forward every day.

As we look to the future, we remain committed to upholding the values of integrity, reliability, and excellence that have been the cornerstone of our company since day one. With our rich history as a foundation, we are poised to continue delivering exceptional logistics solutions to our valued clients for years to come.
