Built on respect, professionalism, dedication and — most importantly — family.
J.P. McMahon Petro-Chem Transport Group was founded by James P. McMahon with a single goal: to bring family values to a logistics industry that too often forgets them. What started as a small operation has grown into the largest independent fuel hauler in the Midwest — without ever losing sight of where we started.
Today, James runs the company alongside his son Jimmy McMahon. Father and son are at the wheel of an operation that hauls petroleum, ethanol, bio fuels, trans-mix and aviation fuel across Illinois, Indiana, and the broader Midwest — for some of the most recognized convenience-store brands in the country.
We're FMCSA-registered, HazMat-certified, and proud of the safety scores we've earned the hard way: one mile, one delivery, one driver at a time.
Family-owned isn't a marketing line — it's how every decision gets made. These are the values that guide everything we do.
For our drivers, our customers, our equipment, and every community we move through. Respect is the foundation everything else gets built on.
The petroleum we move keeps cars on the road and planes in the sky. There's no margin for anything less than total professionalism on every load.
Drivers, dispatch, mechanics, leadership — everyone here is treated as part of the family. That's not soft. That's the reason our retention beats the industry.
Owner James P. McMahon and son Jimmy McMahon have built a company founded on respect, professionalism, dedication and, most importantly, family.
That family-first ethic carries through to every driver, every dispatcher, every mechanic — and to every customer relationship we've ever earned. It's the reason customers stay, drivers stay, and the business keeps growing without losing what made it work in the first place.
Founded the company on the belief that the petroleum hauling industry needed a family-first alternative. Decades of operational experience, a relentless focus on safety, and the conviction that doing right by your drivers is doing right by your customers.
The second generation at the helm. Drives the company's technology vision — including the development of JMAC, our proprietary fuel logistics software — while keeping the family-owned culture intact as the operation grows.
