The Suddath Companies

For over a century, Suddath has established itself as a cornerstone in the moving industry, demonstrating unwavering dedication to excellence since its founding in 1919 in Jacksonville, Florida. What began as a modest moving company has evolved into a nationwide leader in residential and commercial relocation services. Under the leadership of President and CEO Michael J. Brannigan, Suddath has experienced remarkable growth across its diverse business units. Since joining in 2012, Brannigan has overseen strategic realignment and diversification of the company. Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Kevin Gannon has guided the company's financial operations since 2016, building on his various roles within the organization since 2002. What distinguishes Suddath is its comprehensive service portfolio backed by a century of expertise. Their specialized teams handle residential relocations, commercial moves across various industries, and employee relocations—from basic packages to elite VIP programs tailored to specific needs. Throughout its 100+ years in the market, Suddath has expanded beyond Jacksonville to establish a nationwide presence, while continuously innovating to meet evolving client needs. The company actively contributes to communities through initiatives addressing food insecurity, homelessness, and veterans' affairs, including the Mister Rogers' Neighborhood Sweater Drive. Operating with a vision of setting the standard for integrated solutions that move people and businesses forward efficiently, reliably and responsibly, Suddath adheres to core values—Trust, Innovation, Teamwork, Caring, and Agility—which permeate every aspect of their operations. As Suddath advances into its second century, it remains dedicated to serving customers, communities, and employees with the highest level of care, making lives easier in moments that matter.
