TradeTrans CEO invited to join New York Business Journal Leadership Trust


Robert Antes, founder and chief executive officer of TradeTrans Corporation, has been invited to join New York Business Journal Leadership Trust, an exclusive community for influential business leaders, executives and entrepreneurs.

Antes was chosen for membership by the New York Business Journal Leadership Trust Selection Committee due to his experience, leadership and influence in the global supply chain landscape and beyond. Since Antes created TradeTrans 35 years ago, the company has grown from one man’s vision to one of the world’s leading export supply chain management companies for quick service restaurant (QSR), fast causal (fast food) dining and more.

“New York’s thriving business community is powered by leaders like Bob,” said Alex Orfinger, executive vice president of American City Business Journals. “We’re honored to be creating a space where the region’s business influencers come together to increase their impact on the community, build their businesses and connect with and strengthen one another.”

As an invited member, Antes will contribute articles to the New York Business Journal website and participate alongside fellow members in expert panels. He will connect and collaborate with a vetted network of local leaders.

“I’m pleased to join this distinguished group of leaders and leverage my experience as an entrepreneur over the past 35 years in the food service supply chain industry and creating an exceptional team at TradeTrans,” Antes said. “I look forward to connection and collaboration with other New York leaders.”

The New York Business Journal Leadership Trust team said it is honored to welcome Antes to the community and looks forward to position him to further impact the New York business community and beyond.
