G. Armour & Son was founded in 1955 by Gordon Armour in the small community of Taylor Village, New Brunswick. At that time, they had a fleet to vehicles. Wesley Armour then purchased the organization from his father in 1968. In a strategic decision, Wesley moved the office to Moncton where the company slowly began to expand once again. The 1970s followed as a decade of change, where the organization readily developed by purchasing more vehicles, hiring new employees, and opening more terminal branches. The name was changed to Armour Transportation Systems and by the 1980s the organization gained a long-haul division. During the 1990s, Armour Transportation expanded once more. They entered into logistics warehousing and added a courier division throughout the Atlantic Provinces. By 2003, Armour had added port to door container shipping to their long list of services. Today, the firm currently rests as one of the top transportation and logistics specialists in the country, with over 4,000 pieces of equipment, 26 terminal networks, and 1,900 employees throughout Canada and the United States.
