Trucking firm opening Manassas distribution center, creating 30 jobs

A trucking company nearly 100 years old will soon call Manassas home.

Governor Glenn Youngkin and Mayor Michelle Davis-Younger announced trucking firm A. Duie Pyle would establish a service center in Manassas. The freight dock at 10461 Colonel Court, just off Godwin Drive, will have 30 bays.

The expansion will bring 30 new jobs to the city. The company is filling those positions, including managers, drivers, dockworkers, and clerical workers.

Manassas is one of three Virginia cities in which the company will expand. A. Duie Pyle will also open new facilities in Richmond and Roanoke.

“Global supply chains are experiencing unprecedented pressure, and we are pleased that A. Duie Pyle will take advantage of Virginia’s infrastructure and transportation network as a vital provider of supply chain solutions,” said Youngkin.

Over the past 98 years, A. Duie Pyle has served the northeastern U.S.

“Manassas is a regional employment center with a diverse economy and an even more diverse population,” said Manassas Mayor Michelle Davis-Younger. “We welcome the investments by companies like A. Duie Pyle that create well-paying jobs in traditional industries. It is these jobs which enable many of our residents to support their families and realize their dreams.”

A. Duie Pyle will join other logistics firms, Yellow Freight, PBR Logistics, and Penske Truck Rental, also located on Colonel Court.
