Bonus Transportation

Bonus Transportation Inc. is a Florida-based trucking and logistics company headquartered in Sorrento, near Orlando, with operations spanning multiple states. Founded in 1979 by the Boughan family as a small owner-operator enterprise, the company has grown from a single credit card and four Mack tractors into a substantial fleet operation. The comp... any's early years demonstrated resilience and operational discipline; after suffering a significant financial setback in 1981 when a major fleet lease arrangement failed to generate expected revenue, Bonus Transportation recovered within a year through strong relationships with creditors, drivers, and industry partners. This recovery established a foundation of trust and reliability that has defined the company's market position. By 1982, the operation was formally established as Boughan Brothers, Inc., and in 1987 obtained its own common and contract carrier authority, rebranding as Bonus Transportation, Inc. and relocating to a 15-acre facility in Plymouth, Florida. The company expanded its fleet to 42 tractors and 52 trailers while modernizing its equipment, converting to Kenworth tractors in 1984 to enhance operational efficiency and reliability. In 1995, Bonus Transportation acquired the southern division of Genova Express Lines, further expanding its service territory and customer base. The company is recognized as a well-managed, progressive operation that serves regional and national freight transportation needs through a combination of common carrier and contract carrier services. Bonus Transportation's longevity, fleet size, and strategic acquisitions position it as an established player in the regional trucking sector, with a demonstrated commitment to operational excellence and customer service built on decades of family-led management and industry experience.Read More
