Huffman Trucking was founded in 1936 by K. Huffman of Cleveland, Ohio. Hoffmann opened a company with a tractor trailer. Growth of Hoffman truck transport was a direct result of the increase in demand for transport services between the Second World War and the ports of the Midwest and the East Coast. By 1945 the fleet grew to 16 tractors and 36 trailers. The business relations with the US government continue today.
