Willy Schmidt

President

Born in High Level, AB

Childhood was spent in La Crete, AB & Bolivia, moving back to La Crete at the age of 18

After moving back to Canada, I started working for a construction company as dozer operator and then was promoted to project supervisor. I am very thankful for this experience as it showed me how a great company is run.

I love problem solving and taking on new challenges which lead to starting up Willy’s Trucking in 2007. After a few years in Peace River, I moved to Edmonton to set up our head office in 2010. The freight business has given me many opportunities and life connections that I am very grateful for.

I enjoy serving people in need. My wife and I travelled to Nicaragua for 7 days in 2016 helping the less fortunate. That trip was an experience that we will never forget and made us appreciate this great country we live in. So, with that, it is easy for me to go to work each day to help businesses and build lasting partnerships.

Hector

Director of Branch Operations

Over 18 years in Transportation, Logistics, Warehouse, and Distribution management. Transforming underperforming organizational teams into high-performing ones is my passion. Coaching, leading, and mentoring others, I find has been my calling. Working with others and empowering them to meet our aligned goals gives me huge gratification. Since joining Willy’s Trucking Services, I’ve had the pleasure of being part of the Sr. Leadership team in the organization since 2018, where I have held roles as Business development manager, Branch Manager, and Director of Operations. Our focus and commitment to doing it better in all areas of our business ( Customer Service, People, Cost, and Safety) make this the best place to hang my hat every day.
