For Berryman Transfer and Storage Co., the company began way back in 1896, with a horse-drawn wagon. Berryman Transfer’s business started as a coal and ice delivery service to the surrounding Joliet area. It eventually moved on to transporting household furniture until transitioning the warehouse into a distribution service in 2012.
When the former owner of Berryman Transfer was ready to shift into retirement, he put the company up for sale. Searching for the right candidate, he found businessman Abdallah Fadel. Fadel was prepared to invest, however, he needed financial support.
Being a longtime customer of Centrust Bank, he immediately reached out. Centrust responded to the financial needs by providing an SBA loan to purchase the business as well as a line of credit for working capital. Fadel now had the necessary support and tools to carry on this long-standing business and ensure growth for the future.
