Abstract:
A familiar sight on expressways from Boston to New Orleans are the black and orange insignia on the trucks of Thru-Way J--the Johnson Motor Lines System. The trucks of the Charlotte-based motor carrier shuttle between the south and north, carrying tons of goods to feed the nation's economy. In just 16 years the company has gone from doing less that $400,000 worth of business annually to exceeding $24 million, with 35 terminals and 9200 miles through 16 states.
