ABOUT
Gulf Coast Crating (GCC) was founded in June 2013 by Paul Pitman, a supply-chain professional with 25+ years of experience in logistics and transportation. Built on a deep understanding of customer needs and operational performance, GCC began with a small team operating out of a customer’s warehouse. Through a strong commitment to service, disciplined growth, and a customer-first mindset, the company has grown into the largest crating operation in Houston, employing more than 400 people and serving multiple markets. Today, our leadership team continues to drive that same vision focused on reliability, performance, and delivering value to every customer we serve.
