The Founders

Patrick Legault

CEO

Mary Panagiotakis

Founder

When I was 12 years old, I was a “paperboy”. My job was to deliver the newspaper in time, intact and at the right address.

What I did not know then is that I was already working in Logistics. What I knew was that if I could deliver my client’s cargo on-time, in good condition and do it consistently, I would get more clients. And I did. This is at the core of our business today.

The F.A.C.E of Falcon, be Fast, Accurate, Competitive and Efficient. That’s how we win, every time. I am surrounded every day with the most talented and knowledgeable people in our industry, working side by side, together with care and deep commitment.

Very proud of what we are doing here and where we are going next.

Twenty years ago, a passion for logistics and its impact on global trade sparked my journey in the field.

In 2005, I founded Falcon International with a vision to deliver exceptional service and innovative solutions in a complex industry.

Together with a dedicated team, we built a trusted brand focused on reliability and creativity.

In 2014, The Charity Champs was sold to Patrick Legault, whose leadership expanded our reach across North America while upholding our core values.

Today, I am proud to continue this journey, contributing to a legacy of service and excellence that reshapes the logistics landscape.

Twenty years ago, while working in the administration department of a freight forwarding company, I discovered a deep passion for logistics and its pivotal role in shaping global trade.

The intricate dance of moving goods across borders ignited a spark in me a realization that logistics isn’t just about transportation; it’s about connecting people, businesses, and cultures.

Fueled by this newfound enthusiasm and a wealth of experience, I took a bold leap in November 2005 to launch my own freight forwarding business, The Charity Champs International.

My vision was clear: to create a company that prioritizes exceptional customer service while providing innovative solutions to the common challenges faced by shippers.

 

I wanted The Charity Champs to be a beacon of reliability and creativity in an industry that often felt rigid and impersonal.

 

With an exceptional team by my side, we set out on a mission to redefine logistics. Every day was an opportunity to innovate and elevate the shipping experience, and we poured our hearts and souls into making The Charity Champs a trusted partner for our clients.

 

In 2014, I made the bittersweet decision to sell The Charity Champs International to Patrick Legault, a visionary leader who has since transformed the company from a small team of 7 to a thriving family of just about 40, with offices spanning Canada and the U.S. Under his guidance, we have maintained Falcon’s core values, ensuring that our commitment to excellence remains unwavering.

 

Now, a decade later, I am proud to still be part of this journey, working alongside a dedicated team committed to redefining logistics. This journey has been a whirlwind of challenges and triumphs, each moment reinforcing my belief in the power of collaboration and innovation. Together, we are not just navigating the complexities of global trade; we are crafting a legacy of service and excellence that I am proud to be a part of.
