Meet Paul Loeb
Paul Loeb is a transportation & logistics pioneer with a proven record of success. He has the vision, leadership and enthusiasm necessary to create a powerful force within the transportation industry. His former company, American Backhaulers (ABH), was started in 1981 shortly after deregulation of the trucking industry. He built a smart and powerful company that became one of the largest pure transportation brokers in the world.
Paul believed then, as he does now, that profitable, happy carriers are the key to bringing true value to shippers. He instills this philosophy as a cornerstone of Command’s success and continued growth.
In 1999, Paul sold ABH with the idea that retirement sounded good. Five years later, however, he had the itch to get back in the business. He contacted Danny Zamost, a former ABH employee, and eventually partnered with him to create Command Transportation.
In just two short years the company grew from 30 employees in one office to over 200 employees with offices in Chicago, Kansas City, Houston, Detroit and Saint Louis. Known throughout the brokerage world as the grandfather of the industry, Paul's experience, knowledge and leadership are among Command's greatest assets.
