Leicht and the Green Bay Packers: A Legacy of Commitment and Community

How the Leicht Family Helped Shape Green Bay’s Football Legacy

In 1923, Fred Leicht, a young businessman and son of Leicht Transfer & Storage founder Theodore M. Leicht, made a decision that would echo throughout Green Bay’s history. Joining the Packers as one of their original stockholders, Fred wasn’t just investing in football—he was investing in his community.

Fred’s passion for the Packers wasn’t just financial. For over four decades, he and his brother Ray worked tirelessly, from serving on boards to rallying the community to save the team during the turbulent 1950s. Their efforts directly influenced the building of what we now call Lambeau Field, ensuring the Packers stayed in Green Bay—a city they knew was special.

As RGL Logistics celebrates its 122nd year in business, the legacy of the Leicht family lives on in every decision we make. From supporting local businesses to fostering innovation in logistics, we aim to embody the same spirit of perseverance and community that Fred and Ray championed.

Let’s celebrate this legacy together. Discover more about our commitment to Green Bay and beyond at RGL Logistics.
