History In 1972, TWI's founder Stephen J. Barry Jr. vowed to establish a company based on the strength of two principles: to offer customer service designed to address the specific requirements of clients, both current and potential, and to provide a range of services never before offered by other forwarders including round-trip exhibit freight transportation.
Those two founding principles were put to the test when TWI compiled a logistics package for the Sundstrand Corporation and shipped a total of 29,000 pounds of freight for twenty-seven exhibitors to the 1973 Paris Air Show. With that highly successful transaction, TWI was well on its way to becoming the largest exclusive provider of personnel and freight logistics to the exhibition industry. It also began a series of firsts for TWI, and in some cases, for the industry as a whole. As 2010 closes, TWI has now served the tradeshow and event industry longer than any company in our field. Using the same traits instilled in TWI by its founder, TWI continues to provide tradeshow and event shipping with on-time delivery, excellent service and the "can do" attitude on which TWI was founded. In the last five years, TWI has handled more than 37 million kilos (81,808,296 pounds) of tradeshow and event materials to over 30 countries.
