Since Don Middleton began the company 60 years ago, Genex has been focused on customers — helping them move loads efficiently and cost-effectively while overcoming logistics challenges. Now as third generational leadership, Patrick and Andrew proudly continue the family enterprise. And still put customers first.
Our business is built on close, honest working relationships. From day one, you’ll work hand in hand with a team of trained transportation professionals with years of practical experience. They’ll get to know the ins and outs of your business, fine-tune solutions to meet your unique shipping needs, and keep you informed every step of the way.
