The dream arose from the dusty farms of Plain City, Utah. Randy, Keith, Gary, and Kevin Knight had a vision of establishing a short to medium-haul truckload carrier and becoming a major player in the industry. They channeled their desires. They honed their skills. Then, with more than 80 years of trucking experience between the four of them, they were ready to do it better than anyone else. Knight Transportation was created on the basis of achieving growth and profitability through an intensive management style and the creation of a simplified, cost-effective operation. From Plain City to Wall Street, the Knight evolution has come full circle. Knight continues its aggressive business growth plan and has become a "major player" in the trucking industry.
