If attendees at the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte needed a courier, there’s a good chance they used Metro Transportation Services, LLC [1]. Thanks to help from the MBDA Business Center in Raleigh [2], North Carolina, the full services transportation company owned by Joseph and Veronica Greene secured a contract to provide sole source courier services to the Convention.
The Raleigh MBDA Business Center [2] also assisted Metro Transportation in creating a 5-year strategic plan, along with developing skills for evaluating and negotiating contracts. As a result, Metro secured a $75,000 line of credit and contracts totaling more than one million dollars, representing a 25% increase in revenues, creating and retaining as many as 25 jobs both directly and indirectly.
