We are a 3rd generation (working on the 4th), family owned and operated transport company. We are locally known as the Watermelon People because of our specialty grocery store, Fruit N’ More Store. Our whole business is based on relationships. The relationships we have nurtured from way back in the day and the ones we create moving forward are
extremely important to us and the way we do business. We put people first whether you work for us, supply for us, or walk through our doors.
We operate in an agriculture heavy community with plenty of local farmers and producers. We get the opportunity to haul for many of them and are always looking to grow our customer base.
Lawrence Giesbrecht is the founder of our family owned company and he was willing to take big risks, still paying off today. He could talk to anyone about anything, which is how we got started. He struck up a deal while looking for his next load (as you don’t want to haul anywhere empty if you can help it) to haul watermelons from Texas to Winkler, knowing the intense love of watermelons in our community. He didn’t have the cash to pay up front but that watermelon farmer trusted Lawrence enough to allow him to haul away on credit.
That’s how we continue to do business today, create trustworthy relationships and follow through with integrity and respect.
Not long after Lawrence secured his first load, a similar business in Gretna closed and he purchased their scale in effort to found another business in produce sales as a sister company to LGT, what is now known as Fruit N’ More Store.
We put heart into everything we do because that’s how it started. Why fix what ain’t broke? That’s not to say that we don’t value innovation and creative ideas; however we will always fall back on our true nature, create and nurture relationships that last using trust, respect and integrity.
