A Deep-Rooted History
Jack Fraser
Inspired by the late Jack Fraser, whom originally founded "Empire freight-ways" in the 1950's, Empire Transport has been brought back to life. Growing up poor, Jack built his company and career from nothing, becoming a well known figure in Winnipeg. In 1990 Jack was awarded the title "National Transportation Person of the Year" for his contributions to the advancement of surface transportation in Canada. Sourcing inspiration from Jack, Empire Transport values hard work and focus most, looking forward to providing top tier service for our current and future clients.
