Air Van, INC, a North Florida-based leader in third-party logistics (3PL), has been named one of the Jacksonville Business Journal’s 2025 Fast 50 honorees. This prestigious recognition celebrates the 50 fastest-growing private companies in North Florida based on revenue growth from 2022 to 2024.
As supply chains across the globe have been tested in recent years, Air Van has distinguished itself by delivering flexible, reliable logistics solutions that help businesses overcome disruption and maintain continuity. Its inclusion in the Fast 50 highlights not only its sustained business growth but also its role in strengthening the regional economy. “We’ve built Air Van on a foundation of trust, hard work, and customer-first values,” said Herbert “Chip” Matthews, Owner of Air Van Inc. “This recognition is a testament to our dedicated team and the long-term partnerships we’ve built with our clients. We’re proud to be part of North Florida’s logistics backbone and to contribute to the economic health and resilience of our region.”
Founded in 1957 and headquartered in Jacksonville, Air Van provides end-to-end logistics services including warehousing, final mile delivery, customs bonded operations, brokerage, and more. As one of the largest independent logistics providers in the area, Air Van has made strategic investments in infrastructure and workforce development to support sustainable growth.
With over 800,000 square feet of warehouse space and a growing footprint across the Southeast, Air Van is well-positioned to support the increasing demand for supply chain agility across multiple industries—from retail and manufacturing to healthcare and e-commerce.
“North Florida’s position as a logistics hub continues to expand, and companies like Air Van are playing a vital role in moving goods efficiently and supporting business growth across the region,” said Matthews.
The Fast 50 honorees will be recognized at an awards ceremony in August and profiled in a special issue of the Jacksonville Business Journal. The ranking includes companies that have seen the highest percentage and dollar-volume revenue growth over the past three years.
