Our identity is more than an image. It’s our culture.
Collaborative. Values-driven. Built on excellent customer service.
Culture unifies, guides, and inspires loyalty. It combines our values, ethics, mission, and purpose — and it runs through the fabric of who we are. It’s the clearest quality our customers and carriers feel in every interaction.
Identity gives us a sense of purpose.
Our identity is more than an image; it comes from our culture, which unifies, guides, and inspires loyalty. It combines our values, ethics, mission, and purpose. It captures our beliefs and runs through the fabric of our being.
Our identity should always be the clearest quality to our customers and carriers. If they cannot perceive the difference between our competitors and us, we do not understand our culture enough to communicate it. Clarity is a strength of our organization.
Business is the ultimate team sport.
Teamwork is the cornerstone of our success. The key to a great team is that we’re complementary — we build on our strengths and organize to make our weaknesses irrelevant.
Complementary strengths
We build on what each of us does best and organize so our weaknesses become irrelevant. The team is stronger than any one of us.
A shared vision
Collaboration is about creating value through a shared vision and a commitment to serving customers — not working in silos.
Sustained effort
Team building is powerful but doesn’t happen on its own. We maintain it through sustained effort, a positive environment, and real esprit de corps.
A woman- and family-owned business.
Taylor has been family owned since 1850 and is proudly recognized as a woman-owned business today. That heritage shapes how we treat our people, our partners, and every relationship we build.
Our difference is excellent customer service.
We share a connection with and a responsibility to our customers, carriers, and employees — and a clear sense of what makes us stand above the rest.
Good customer service
Plenty of providers are pleasant, responsive, and competent. Good is common — and it’s rarely enough to set a company truly apart in a crowded market.
Excellent customer service
Very few offer excellent. We aim for excellence and continuous improvement through preventative action and root-cause analysis — a promise of excellent customer satisfaction with every interaction. That’s our brand.
One family, seven generations in.
Taylor has been family owned and operated since 1850 — and today the company is run by its sixth and seventh generations of Taylors. That continuity is why our culture is so consistent: the values were handed down, not written by committee.
Being family owned means we take the long view. We invest in our people, keep our word, and measure success in relationships that last — not just quarters.
Helping feed our neighbors.
Culture doesn’t stop at our dock doors. Our team supports Feeding America through the Freestore Foodbank in Cincinnati — helping provide meals to neighbors across the region facing hunger.
It’s a natural fit: we’ve spent 175 years moving food and goods through this city, and giving back to the community that raised us is part of who we are.
Moving freight responsibly since 2006.
Sustainability isn’t a recent add-on for us — it’s part of the culture. Taylor has been an EPA SmartWay carrier since 2006, measuring and improving fuel efficiency and emissions across our fleet, year over year.
“A promise to deliver excellent customer satisfaction with every interaction. This is our brand.”
