North Florida Hauling was founded in December 2007 by Jose “Pepe” Cancio. He was born in Havana, Cuba on December 30, 1939 and moved to the United States at the age of 20 after disagreeing with the Communists regime and Fidel Castro. Being a member of the Bay of Pigs 2506 Brigade, Cancio also volunteered in the U.S. Army during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Jose Pepe Cancio has worked in the concrete industry for over five decades. In 1970, Cancio moved to Brazil along with his family. From 1970 to 1983, Cancio began working as manager and grew to be general manager of Concretex S.A. in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
