Tennessee Express Lines | Application Preview

 

Tennessee Express Lines is seeking government grants to support various initiatives, including employee retention, business capital, disaster relief due to Covid-19, expansion efforts, and assistance with debt payments. The business plan outlines an expansion strategy that involves acquiring additional trucks and hiring more employees to secure larger contracts with multiple companies, which would contribute to the company's growth and increase revenue.

The application highlights the company's 13 years of operation and the owner’s 24 years of experience in the trucking industry as indicators of their capability to run a profitable business.

In terms of competition, Tennessee Express Lines faces challenges from established firms such as Lewis Trucking, which has local family ties, Shoun Trucking, which boasts a large fleet and driver availability, and ETI, supported by family wealth and a robust number of trucks and drivers.

Despite the competition, Tennessee Express Lines emphasizes its competitive edge through a personal and hands-on approach. The owner actively participates alongside the drivers and staff, fostering a caring, family-oriented workplace where employees are empowered to make important decisions. This commitment to personal service and employee engagement positions the company favorably within the local market.
