About Connor Meeuwsen
Originally from Metro Detroit, Michigan, Connor is the co-founder of Canyon Group Logistics, a freight brokerage firm expanding as an agency that began in 2019 in Tempe, AZ. He is a USAF Veteran and started CGL with no prior experience shortly after completing active duty.
One of their main specialties is transporting horticulture and agriculture products. Within the last few years, they expanded into the LTL sector and began operating with in-house/proprietary build systems. They bootstrapped the entire business without outside lending - cleaned college apartments and painted houses and commercial space to fund their start/progression. Now, they’ve grown to a team of 5.
