JBM is a Family Company

In 1985 Greg Sheanshang launched JBM as an envelope brokerage business. From the beginning, the company was focused on developing a culture of quality, innovation, and excellence – with a “family” feel. In fact, Greg was inspired to name the company after his three children – Jennifer, Bridget, and Marcus.

Now, 40 years and a generation later, we maintain our focus on being a family-oriented business.

We all share this vision and strive to demonstrate each value in our day-to-day operations. They guide how we treat each other, our customers, and how we tackle our work. With strong Core Values and a higher Purpose, our company performs better.
