Vineland Construction was established by Israel Brown, the owner and operator of a small trucking company headquartered in Vineland, New Jersey. As he acquired real estate properties for his hauling operations and for investment, Mr. Brown’s real estate business expanded. This progress led him to assemble an in-house workforce to acquire and construct industrial and commercial buildings for his customers and other businesses. In 1952, Israel Brown relinquished control and ownership of his trucking and real estate businesses to his son, Bernard. Under Bernard Brown’s leadership, the trucking business, then known as National Freight, and real estate operations flourished and grew nationwide. In 2019, Bernard’s daughter, Anne E. Koons, a highly successful real estate businessperson for almost 40 years, assumed control of Vineland Construction following her father’s retirement.
