Board Member-FILLED

“This is an exceptional opportunity to have a substantial impact on a company and to be a serious part of the growth and success.”

Commodity Trucking Holdings, Inc. “CTH” is a well-established Southern California trucking company specializing in hauling materials used in heavy civil construction, including rock, dirt, and other aggregate materials. Founded in 1953, the company has built a strong reputation across the region and today employs approximately 190 people.

Longstanding, family-rooted company (since 1953) with entrepreneurial leadership hungry to grow. Opportunity to make a measurable impact on strategy, M&A execution, and long-term value creation for employee-owners.

The company has grown significantly over the decades. Through hands‑on leadership and disciplined growth, the previous owners grew the company by 3000% from 1989 to 2026! CTH is now an employee‑owned company, having transitioned to an Employee Stock Ownership Plan “ESOP” on January 1, 2022.

Note:

The ESOP was 100% from this date and is an S Corp. The ESOP structure was implemented as a long‑term ownership and succession strategy that allows employees to share in the company’s future success. While the business operates as a unified organization, it is structured through several legal entities that support its operations.

The company is part of a captive insurance group consisting of 37 companies. The new leadership team is growth‑oriented and focused on building a scalable platform for the future. The organization has a vision to grow the revenues to $400–$500 million through a combination of organic growth and strategic acquisitions.

This is a company with both history and momentum. The executive team is in the prime of their careers and deeply committed to thoughtful, sustainable growth, not growth for its own sake, but growth that strengthens the business and creates long‑term value. Leadership includes individuals with deep industry experience and exposure to sophisticated growth strategies and acquisition models.

For professionals looking to join a dynamic, entrepreneurial environment, CTH offers the rare combination of a long‑standing, stable business and a leadership team that is hungry to build the next chapter. The company has already made its mark in the industry—and the next decade represents an exciting opportunity to help shape where it goes next.

This is an opportunity for an experienced collaborative Board Member to join the Board of Directors and help guide strategic growth through organic and M&A activity, plus bring expertise in ESOP structures. This is a non‑executive board role with the expectation of active engagement in quarterly board meetings and, depending on the expertise of the individual, may be nominated for committee work such as audit, compensation, nominating, and acquisition diligence.

NOTE:

More sensitive information will be shared with candidates after the initial interview and both parties appear to be a good fit.
