About Us
Since 1918, and starting with Francis J. Kane, the Kane Family has been actively involved in trucking, warehousing, office moving, limousine/bus services, commercial real estate, and interior commercial construction. After working 12 years at the Kane Transfer Co., a young Eugene I. Kane (“E.I.”), Francis’ nephew and COO, decided to venture out on his own and started the E.I. Kane Company in 1969. E.I.’s business expanded into office moving and limousine/charter bus services and grew to $60MM in revenues.
E.I. mentored his son, Richard, in the logistics space and envisioned significant growth in the ground transportation division. Richard transferred from the trucking divisions to the family owned limousine and charter bus service located in Washingtom, DC to implement a sales strategy and manage the growth.
Over a 15 year period, Richard successfully grew the limousine/bus company to 200 employees and 140 company owned vehicles. With Richard’s desire to return to the trucking industry, he exited the limousine/bus industry in a high-profile industry transaction. The Kane Group then promptly acquired both the Capitol Express and Warehousing companies in 2021. The Kane Group is 100% owned by Richard Kane, maintains 350,000 square feet of cross dock warehousing serving clients using the Baltimore Port for their container movements.
The mission of the company is to become a first class one-stop comprehensive logistics provider for manufacturers, shippers, freight forwarders and freight brokers for all their warehouse and trucking needs. Accordingly, the company has expanded its reach outside of the mid-Atlantic region by securing a freight brokerage license to become an even more important partner to our shippers.
