Freeporter and Guyana native Ken Deocharran, 37, started his trucking and courier service business in 2006, and through his contracts with Amazon, has since built a $15 million company, with roughly 120 trucks delivering goods throughout the tristate area and in Chattanooga, Tenn.

He attributes his success in part to working with Amazon’s Logistics network. His company, Express Trucking and Courier Inc., has roughly 120 trucks, but more than half of them haul Amazon trailers filled with packages around the tristate areas as well as in Pennsylvania and Chattanooga, Tenn. As a service provider for Amazon, Deocharran helps the company ensure that packages arrive on time.
But business wasn’t always this good for Deocharran. Thirteen years ago, he was just a man with a van, running a courier service out of his parents’ home in Richmond Hill, Queens. When he started his business, he had a single Honda Odyssey minivan that his mother helped him buy.
