M and M Towing and Transport LLC | Application Preview
M and M Towing and Transport LLC is seeking government grants to fund the purchase of 1-2 new towing trucks, which will enable the hiring of non-CDL drivers. The funds will be used to keep their existing trucks operational in South Carolina, ensuring they can respond quickly to breakdowns and sign up for insurance apps to enhance income and cover expenses. The owner shares a personal experience of a significant delay when a truck broke down, highlighting the urgency of increasing their fleet to ensure the business remains viable.
The business aims to grow by adding more towing trucks and creating full-time and part-time employment opportunities for drivers. With the grant, they plan to hire up to four part-time drivers for the new trucks and expand their operations over the next five years to include additional trucks and administrative roles for dispatchers.
The owner has overcome substantial personal challenges, including raising three children alone for almost seven years while building the business from the ground up. They have gained experience in all areas of the business, including dispatching and accounting, and plan to support others who aspire to follow a similar path. The impact of the coronavirus has been challenging, but they are committed to their growth and the welfare of potential drivers who do not have CDLs.
In a competitive landscape that includes JG Towing, Dooley Towing, and Jenning’s Towing, M and M Towing distinguishes itself through prompt service and meticulous attention to customer needs. The owner believes that with the right funding, they can ensure the business not only survives but thrives, fostering economic opportunities for drivers in the community.

Funding Usage
Buy new tow 1-2 cars towing trucks to hire a non CDL driver, keep the 2 trucks running local in SC to cover the breaking down cars, and sign up those trucks to insurance apps to boost the business income to cover expenses and stay running all the times. I had an experience with our truck breaking down, it took me almost 6 hours to get it towed, we have a shortage of towing trucks and I think this will help the business stay open, running, generate money, and have 2 more extra employees.

Business Plan
I am hoping and working on growing my logistics business to add more carrier/towing trucks, have full time and part time employees to give more opportunities to employ more drivers, if I get the grant and buy 2 more towing trucks business will not be limited to CDL drivers, with possibility to hire 4 part time drivers to run the 2 new trucks. Business plan is to add 4 more truck in the next 5 years, and 1-2 administration dispatchers who work from home to assign loads to drivers. I was a single mom raising 3 young kids by myself for almost 7 years, I opened the business from scratch by myself without any help, worked hard to learn about all the details to apply and file for everything myself to save every extra penny. I’ve been the dispatcher, and accountant, and planing to launch a program that help others who want to do what I’ve done to save them the mistakes that I did, and time waste. I am hard working, positive, a fighter to achieve my goals, and coronavirus has effected my business in a negative way. I receive calls from drivers interested in joining my business but they don’t have CDL, I think investing in my business will help my business survive AND GROW, and will help other drivers provide for their families. I am very organized, I treat my drivers and anyone I work with with great respect like family, and need this opportunity to keep my business to keep growing.
