Company History
Double “S” Transport, Inc., Truck Dynasty Driving Academy’s parent company, was established in 1994 and has become one of the most respected companies within the transportation industry today, hauling freight for FedEx Ground. Leon Shaw, President, began his company with just one truck, added a second truck in 1995, and three additional trucks in 1996. At this time he determined to diversify and purchased semi-tractors with refrigerated trailers, becoming Full Tilt Transport, L.L.C. In 1997, still driving himself, he sent his wife, Mary Shaw, to truck driving school. While continuing to add to his fleet, they began to pull double trailers for FedEx Ground as a team.
From 1998 to 2005, Mr. Shaw rented a facility from Wingfoot Tire in Springfield, MO. At this point and time in his business career Leon began a diesel mechanic shop for the service and repair of both his own fleet, as well as developing a clientele of outside customers from within the transportation industry. He named his company Taylor Made Truck and Trailer Repair, Inc. Today, their annual sales revenue is approximately 55% derivative from the service and repair of his own fleets, and 45% derived from the service and repair of the diesel engines from outside customers.
Today, addressing the need for qualified drivers to transport the Nation’s freight, Mr. Shaw has established a training facility specifically designed to provide highly skilled, safety oriented and fuel efficient drivers to enter the industry. This business is Truck Dynasty Driving Academy.
