The Cardinal story began in April 1980 in Concord, N.C., a small town located just outside of Charlotte, N.C. It was then that Cardinal Freight Carriers, Inc. was formed as a wholly owned subsidiary of Carolina Freight Corporation to handle full truckloads for the company. In August 1995, Carolina Freight (a.k.a. Worldway, Inc.) along with the subsidiary division of Cardinal Freight and its common fleet of 14 tractors were purchased by Arkansas Best Corporation. Cardinal Freight and its parent company were acquired by GTCR Golder and Rauner – a Chicago-based private equity firm.
