Atlas ® World Group Celebrates 75 Years of Going New places

Atlas® World Group, a global family of companies delivering leading transportation, moving, and storage services, marked 2023 as its 75th year in business with a celebratory event on Tuesday, Sept. 19, at the Atlas World Group headquarters in Evansville, Indiana. As the largest hauler of household goods for Atlas Van Lines, Ace Relocation is excited to celebrate this milestone!

Following Atlas® Van Lines’ founding in 1948, Atlas® relocated its headquarters to Evansville, Indiana, in 1959. Today, the company remains an asset to the city of Evansville and surrounding areas by creating jobs, supporting local non-profit organizations, and participating in important community events.

Speaking at the anniversary celebration in Evansville, Jack Griffin, Chairman and CEO of Atlas World Group, said “Atlas has seen its fair share of challenges, from the uncertainty in the 1970s and 1980s to today’s market insecurities. Our perseverance and outlook toward the future will keep us steady for the next 75 years and all the opportunities that come along the way.”

Atlas has also seen its share of successes throughout the years, including five major acquisitions since 2000 with Champion International Moving, Ltd., TopHAT Logistical Solutions™, and Progressive Transportation, LLC, in the past four years alone. Throughout its history, Atlas has been recognized for its technological innovation, sustainability, and business practices, as well as its philanthropic initiatives such as working with Habitat for Humanity®, aiding victims of Hurricane Katrina, Hurricane Ian partnering with Wounded Warrior Project® and the American Heart Association®, raising funds and awareness for Truckers Against Trafficking.
