    In 1932, Israel Brown established National Hauling in Vineland, New Jersey. What began as a single truck business expanded into a leading, multi-faceted third-party logistics provider. Israel’s son Bernard “Bernie” Brown joined the business in the 1940s and spearheaded the growth of NFI from a small trucking company to a national player. NFI transformed from a New Jersey-only transportation company to a regional contender in the 1970s. Bernie’s entrepreneurial spirit did not start and end in transportation as he saw the natural extension of his business and invested in warehousing and real estate.

    Today, NFI is led by brothers Sidney Brown, CEO, Ike Brown, President-Vice Chairman, and Jeff Brown, President-Vice Chairman. Under their leadership, NFI has become one of the largest and most successful, family-owned and operated, third-party logistics companies in North America providing Distribution, Transportation, Integrated Logistics, Port Services, and Real Estate solutions. Our values guide us and the spirit of our history inspires our growth as the fourth generation of the Brown family has joined the business and continues the legacy to this day.
