East Coast Transportation Continues to Grow in Spite of the Down Economy
After only 11 months in business, East Coast Transportation acquires another limousine provider. The move marks the second one this year for this fast growing company.
Jacksonville, FL, May 21, 2009 --(PR.com)-- East Coast Transportation of North Florida announced today that it has acquired Executive VIP Limousine of Jacksonville. The terms of the deal were not disclosed. Executive VIP Limousine has been serving the Jacksonville community for over 30 years making it one of the oldest limousine companies in the area.

The acquisition makes the second one by East Coast Transportation which acquired Executive Transportation & Tours earlier this year. The Company has grown at a tremendous rate since opening its doors in June of 2008 and is on pace to exceed $1 million in sales in its first 12 months.
A commitment to excellence and reliable service has earned East Coast a sterling reputation as well as exclusive contracts with resort hotels, corporate accounts, and a growing number of affluent resident customers.

During their first 10 months in business, East Coast has transported over 18,000 people and run more than 4600 trips.
