Did McCain Foods (Potato Processing Company) Have There Own Private Fleet 25 years ago?

Yea they did. My dad worked for them back before i was born, think it was the late 60s early 70s shortly after they came to the U.S.

He had a picture of him and mom infront of one of the trucks kissing that a coworker took as a gag on the walls forever when i was a kid. Was their logo on the truck door but a blank trailer. No idea what happened to that photo ill ask and see if he has it someplace.

 

I grew up in that neck of the woods, I know that they had branded trailers, but they own day and Ross out of Hartland New Brunswick , have since the mid sixties I believe. They also used to sell a lot of frozen concentrated juices as well, probably became the return loads after potato deliveries perhaps. Can’t say as far as the trucks though

 

They did 7-11 store deliveries .
Cabover tractors
Reefers in the front dry goods on the tail
Had a funky little left ramp that folded out on the side for reefer freight.
Hanks truck page had pictures back in the day.

 

Believe Ur thinking of McLane that did 7-11's

 

They still do around here.
