Building a legacy, one mile at a time.
At SEWELL Motor Express, our history isn’t just kept in the archives—it’s reflected in how we operate every single day. Since 1921, we have evolved from a local Wilmington, Ohio, business into a premier regional logistics provider, but our core values remain unchanged.
Honesty, respect, commitment, partnership, and compassion—these are the principles Howard Su Sr. lived by when he first started the business, and they are the pillars of our employee-owned culture today.
We’ve come a long way since the early days of hauling goods from Cincinnati paddle wheelers, but our focus on serving our partners with integrity hasn't wavered for over a century. Here’s to the past, the present, and the future of excellence in the Midwest.
