As we celebrate the 40th anniversary of Courier Express, we reflect on the company's journey since its founding in 1985. With Bill Messerly acquiring ownership in 1990, we embarked on a path of remarkable growth and achievement.  Starting as a courier company with $1 million in revenue by 1992, we have now soared to an impressive $185 million and are approaching the $200 million mark. This growth has been made possible under the leadership of Jack and Jim Messerly, through our CX Direct, CX Freight, and CX Logistics divisions. Did you know that our exciting history of expansion began in 1993 with the purchase of our first freight vehicle, affectionately known as Big Red? 

Today, CX Freight has experienced significant growth, boasting over 100 power units. We are also proud to operate 31 brick-and-mortar CX Direct locations and provide national coverage throughout the United States through our CX Logistics division.
