When brothers Alec and Gus Hajimihalis started Ace Logistics in 2001, they were, as Alec put it, “hardworking and
aggressive” — but they were not by any means inexperienced.
“We started as children in the Greek and Italian delicatessen bakery business,” Gus said. “Then came the pizza shops. We expanded to a wholesale produce distribution company, then evolved into our current warehousing business.”
At the time of Ace Logistics’ founding, “other companies in the industry were larger and already established. But we felt that we could provide a higher level
of personalized service. One of the things that has been a big part of our success
is that people can reach us,” Gus said. “We answer our phones.” (“To a fault,” Alec added.)
Ace Logistics also prides itself on its good working relationship with the Port of Baltimore, including Ports America Chesapeake and the Maryland Port Administration.
“We think that the Port of Baltimore has assembled the finest, most talented people in the industry,” Alec said. “They’re very responsive, very supportive, and
they have been very honest with the distribution and transportation community. That is a huge asset in our business.”
