About the Company

WHO WE ARE
American Expediting’s customers do serious work and we take their trust seriously. They depend on us to provide highly specialized services – from cold-chain logistics to urgent same-day ground transport – and reliably meet the most exacting standards. As a premier life sciences logistics partner our reputation for excellence is hard-earned, with first-in-class on-time performance for high-value, mission-critical, time-sensitive shipments. Our people are smart, creative problem-solvers whose focus on continuous innovation empowers us to meet the ever-evolving needs of our customers.

OUR HISTORY
American Expediting was founded in Philadelphia by Victor Finnegan, a University of Pennsylvania business student, as a one-person, same-day courier operation in 1983. Within a year his business was racing past competitors, and by 1988 was one of Philadelphia’s leading time-critical delivery organizations. Many of our people have been with us from the beginning, building the company into a premier national provider of specialty transport, logistics, storage and distribution solutions with a hard-earned reputation for excellence.
