Mosaic Global Lands On Inc. 5000 List For First Time

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Inc. Magazine has named Mosaic Global Transportation one of the fastest growing privately owned companies in America, with the unveiling of the Inc. 5000 List of 2017.

The list represents a comprehensive review of privately held corporations that make up the backbone of the nation’s commerce and economy. Mosaic Global Transportation was ranked 2,957 with annual revenues of $10.2 million in a review of more than six million privately owned companies. This was the first time making the prestigious list.

Mosaic’s founder & CEO Maurice Brewster said, “All 108 Mosaic Global Transportation’s leaders, staff, and employees are ecstatic about receiving this prestigious award. We walk a little bit taller with this award which confirms the hard work by all.” 

Maurice & Rhonda Brewster, owners of Mosaic Global Transportation, founded the company in 2002.  This year, with the celebration of being in business for 15 years, the award comes at the right time, said Brewster, especially when so much disruption is going on in the industry making growth and profitability such a challenge.

Mosaic Global Transportation was formed as Rollz Royce Limousine Service, providing limousine services for special events in a vintage Rolls Royce. Today, the service has moved to corporate transportation services, covering the span of black car services, meetings and special events, and employee shuttle services for companies like Clorox, Macy’s, Google, NBC, and MUFG Union Bank.

Central Virginia Company Expands Service Into Blue Ridge Region

RICHMOND, Va. — James Limousine, one of the largest chauffeured executive transportation services in the Richmond area, closed a deal Aug. 10 to run the operations of Blue Ridge Executive Transportation in Charlottesville.

The deal, announced in a press release on Sept. 5, provides James Limousine with operating rights over Blue Ridge Executive Transportation. While exact terms of the deal have not been divulged, James Limousine has already taken over client relations and reservations for the business. During a transition period, all Blue Ridge Executive Transportation domains will remain active to continue to serve loyal clientele.

Last year,  Blue Ridge Executive Transportation ran 10 cars and drew revenue of more than $750,000. The company’s former owners are retiring. James Limousine CEO Randy Allen saw the possibility of serving the Charlottesville area as an excellent opportunity to expand his company’s reach.

“The Charlottesville market is underserved,” Allen said in the release. “When we heard about the possibility of acquiring operations over Blue Ridge, we knew there was a huge potential for growth. We’re going into this ready to raise the bar Charlottesville residents are used to – by providing the highest quality customer service.”

James Limousine already operates 29 vehicles in Newport News, Williamsburg, and Richmond. The merger allows the company to serve the entire 200-mile corridor, from Charlottesville to Newport News spanning the state’s mountain, Piedmont, and coastal regions. The expansion comes as James Limousine marks its 25th anniversary.

James Limousine has been providing luxury transportation services to the Richmond area since 1992.
