WHO WE ARE

|
Every successful organization needs great leaders. Great leaders must have a vision for success. INTRACO’s success was founded on the commitment, dedication, integrity, hard work, and vision of its founder and CEO, Nicola M. Antakli. Four decades ago, Mr. Antakli came to America with a single goal: to build bridges between people and nations by promoting peace through trade. He demonstrates pride in his Arabic heritage, but even more pride in being an American. Mr. Antakli has been recognized for his business prowess in the global marketplace. In 1991, he was named World Trader of the Year by the World Trade Club. In 1996, he was awarded with the Ellis Island Medal of Honor for his vision, perseverance, faith, and contribution to the United States and the world. Mr. Antakli’s personal involvement in civic affairs varies widely from his church, to political involvement at local, state, and national levels, and to business and philanthropic associations. |
Nicola M. Antakli founded INTRACO Corporation in 1971, after establishing the overseas operations for a Fortune 100 automotive company. His small manufacturers’ rep firm was originally headquartered in Beirut, Lebanon, and serviced automotive replacement parts and glass businesses throughout the Middle East.
Through his leadership and vision, INTRACO has mastered the ongoing development of mutually beneficial business partnerships in the global marketplace. He believes that language, trade, and cultural barriers can be overcome by working together... thereby creating long term relationships and a broader understanding between people and nations.
Today, INTRACO is a thriving global trading, distribution, and consulting firm as a result of his dedicated commitment to growing the business.
