Leaseway Transportation

Company History: The LEASEWAY TRANSPORTATION CORP. was a holding company with over 110 subsidiaries in specialized highway transit, vehicle leasing, and distribution. Formed in 1960, the company was heir to a local cartage firm begun in 1899 by Hugh O'Neill and managed in subsequent years by his family. Hugh O'Neill oversaw the company's transition from a horse-drawn fleet at its inception to a motorized one in 1912, and O'Neill's sons, Hugh Jr., William, and Francis transformed the business into a complex of service, leasing, and trucking companies.
