Growth was driven primarily by:
- Winning and then steadily expanding lanes with [Redacted #1 customer] (now ~90% of revenue)
- Adding more trucks (up to 23, with 7 new units in 2025 replacing older ones, lowering maintenance and improving uptime)
- Optimizing lanes and backhauls so that previously empty return trips are now loaded, improving margins
- Very high service performance (99%+ on‑time) leading [customer] to route more volume to them and invite them to additional bids and lanes (including new California and potential East Coast work)
