Our History

In 1989, Mike Patterson and Meyer Bolnick saw a major need for customization in the transportation industry. Guided by their faith and a deep belief that clients deserve more than a one-size-fits-all solution, they founded King Solutions as an asset-based 3PL rooted in service, integrity, and care. From the beginning, King has been driven not only by a client-centric approach, but also by a culture of giving back to the community. Today, that legacy lives on as the company has been entrusted from one family to another—remaining privately held and values-led through every chapter. Since then, we’ve grown beyond the traditional 3PL model to become a full-scale logistics service provider—offering end-to-end, customized solutions for businesses across every industry.

Our Faith and Corporate Chaplaincy

As a faith-based organization, King Solutions has opened pathways for its employees to explore and embrace their relationship with God. We were the first organization in Minnesota to offer Corporate Chaplains of America (CCA) services to its employees, and it’s something we still do today.
