Since its inception, Cahill Transport has been a family owned and operated company. The Cahill family has been associated with the transport industry since 1915, when John Cahill purchased his first horse and dray. John’s son, Joe Snr, was later to become the Victorian General Manager of the company “Yellow Express”.
In 1951, his son also named Joe, purchased his own truck, which he fondly remembers as a Ford Semi Trailer. The Ford cost 720 pounds, and Joe borrowed money from his father and uncle to assist with the deposit. Within four years, the truck was fully paid for and the growth of Joe’s own venture ‘Cahill Transport’ firmly established. August 2021 marked the proud achievement of over 70 years in the business and of a success story far beyond John Cahill’s wildest expectations.
