Cap Rukert

Rukert Terminals was founded in 1921 by Cap Rukert with a loan of $800 from Drovers and Mechanics Bank. Through a series of acquisitions over 53 years, Cap continued to grow the business and lay a foundation for continued success.

Today, in our 99th year of business, Rukert Terminals is guided by Norman G Rukert Jr., the grandson of Cap Rukert, as well as other members of our extended family.
