Russell L. Gottemoeller, Founder & President
I founded Continental Express Inc. in 1984 with a primary goal in mind: to be an organization that provides a total logistics service and not just another trucking company. We work hand-in-hand with our business partners in order to help them meet and exceed their key objectives. We like to think of ourselves as an extension of our customers’ companies — their goals are our goals as well. Therefore, we will provide whatever service it takes to establish a business partnership that is unsurpassed.

Please do not hesitate to contact me or one of my team members. Thank you for showing an interest in Continental Express.

History
Gottemoeller’s vision for Continental Express began in 1976 when he bought his first truck, hired one driver, and set up shop on his father’s farm. By the late 1970s, the trucking industry was not the most attractive field as the market was volatile and the risk was high. However, Gottemoeller took a conservative approach that proved valuable and led to a strong pattern of growth.

By 1984, the business was incorporated as Continental Express and a new corporate facility was constructed in Sidney, Ohio. Since then, the corporate location has undergone multiple expansions and terminals have opened in Ohio, Indiana, South Carolina, Virginia, Kentucky, and Texas.

A true entrepreneur, Gottemoeller’s vision continues today. He is dedicated to ensuring that Continental Express maintains a strong financial portfolio while also seeking opportunities to grow and better serve his customers and employees. That strong foundation is why Continental Express remains a leader in the transportation industry.
