Transport Enterprise Leasing (TEL) launched a discount program in support of military veterans in the commercial trucking industry. The initiative aims to help veterans succeed as independent owner-operators by lowering their initial business costs. The program offers a $750 discount on the security deposit for a new truck lease with TEL.
“TEL supports military veterans because it’s the right thing to do, and because it’s good for commercial trucking,” Jud Alexander, president and co-founder of TEL, said. “Veterans have made sacrifices for our nation and deserve everyone’s appreciation. They also are known for being excellent and dedicated commercial drivers.”
The late Doug Carmichael, who co-founded TEL with Alexander, was a U.S. Army veteran and a commercial truck owner-operator early in his career.
