DLT, more commonly known as the blockchain technology, was introduced by Bitcoin and is now a buzzword in the technology world, given its potential across industries and sectors. In simple words, the DLT is all about the idea of a “decentralized” network against the conventional “centralized” mechanism, and it is deemed to have far-reaching implications on sectors and entities that have long relied upon a trusted third-party.

In 1991 Mr. Teja Singh came to the United States with a dream to start a business and provide a better life for his family. With farming being his main business in India, he had very little knowledge about trucking in the US. He decided to move to Fresno, CA because of the climate similarities to his home state of Punjab, India. After getting his Commercial Driver’s License (CDL), he began to drive long haul for his uncle’s trucking company which was based out of Bakersfield, CA. His main emphasis was hauling produce from the west coast to the east coast. He realized that this was a niche in the trucking industry and required special attention to make sure the perishable freight was handled properly. After learning the industry, Mr. Singh decided to buy his own truck and become an Owner Operator. Soon after he realized that most of his friends and colleagues were having a difficult time with getting directions and load information due to the lack of communication of two different cultures and the language barrier. He realized that while helping others, he was actually dispatching other trucks and this led to customers contacting him directly because of his communication skills with the other truckers. Shortly after, Mr. Singh opened up an office in Fresno, CA and started signing up Sub-haulers and getting them produce loads under his new company, Dosanjh Truck Lines. The new company soon had a lot of sub-haulers signed up and was on its way to starting a new method of trucking in the US.

In 2003, Mr. Singh’s son Lakhvir (Lucky) Singh joined the company and worked in the billing department while he was attending a local college in Fresno, CA. Mr. Singh’s dream was to put Lucky and his other son, Rupinder (Bobby) Dosanjh through college and have them both major in Business administration so they could one day take over the business. While working in the billing department at age 20, Lucky started having an interest in dispatching. Lucky had no idea that a tragic event in his life would have him soon taking over the business. His father, Mr. Teja Singh, while visiting Punjab, India on vacation in 2007 had suddenly passed away. This was a very sad and unfortunate event for the family and left Lucky and his family to make critical decisions for the business. So it became evident that Dosanjh Truck Lines had to keep going as per Mr. Singh’s dreams. Lucky decided to shorten the name from Dosanjh Truck Lines and started doing business as (DBA) DTL Transport.
