Owner -Troy R. Emerson

Troy R. Emerson is originally from Madison, WI and has been an enterprising small business owner for the majority of his working life. An accomplished all star wrestler in his high school, he attended George Mason University in Fairfax, VA on a full wrestling scholarship and received the title of All American for his dedication to a sport he both loved and mastered. After leaving college, Emerson began a career in professional boxing as an up and coming formidable middleweight, which he fostered for 6 years. During that time, he extensively traveled the United States and his fight card included 14 bouts, 7 of which he won in KO’s. Emerson took what he learned from the promotion side of boxing and left the ring to continue a family business as a promoter for the Shrine Circus in the late 80’s and early 90’s. As a young family man, he built the company into a 2.5 million dollar enterprise within a decade. A truly accomplished salesman with a keen sensibility for promotion, for the past 10 years he has focused his energies on his self-started moving company,  3 GORILLAS MOVING and STORAGE, based in Tucson, AZ. Combining fond memories of working as a teenager on moving vans along with his unmatched promotional background, his ceaseless drive and commitment to excellence has gained the company a highly respected position in the Tucson moving services market. He recently acquired a brand new 5,000 sq. ft. warehouse along I-10 in southern Tucson. He was granted the exclusive southeastern Arizona agency appointment for National Van Lines, Inc., a long established; Illinois based long distance worldwide van line. This has allowed Emerson to expand his operations throughout the entire United States including Hawaii and Alaska, as well as internationally. He recently received military approval for his agency and warehouse, enabling him to employee over 20 Tucsonans in the performance of moving, rigging and storage services for US military personnel at Davis Monthan Air Force Base and Ft. Huachuca in Sierra Vista, both domestically and overseas.

Emerson applies his winning spirit to all of his endeavors and lives by the fundamental principal that there are no long lasting quick ways to success. He lives by the premise that success is the result of continuous hard work and effort, with a desire to see that its results serve a purpose higher than oneself.
