Mickey Velilla grew up in a city that never sleeps. So when starting the business he didn’t get any either. It’s often joked about among the staff that he is really a vampire he just doesn’t want to admit it.
The truth of the matter is he is unwavering in his dream to build the best transportation company in the United States. Nothing less than that feat will be acceptable.
Most who know Mickey well, always comment on his intensity when doing anything, whether mowing the grass, or sweeping the garage.
He grew up as a poor kid in the Bronx, where he worked as soon as he could, and always worked hard. He was in fact the underdog, which always seemed to finish ahead of what everyone thought. It’s amusing to those who know him now, that still he views himself as the underdog so as keep the maximum pressure on himself. For him it’s never enough.
When looking at a company to do business with, the owner is the person who carries the responsibility of the company culture. You can imagine how high the level is for the folks that work for Mickey. Quite frankly, it’s nice to know we usually exceed his expectations.
