Marold Studesville, CEO & Owner, Transport Financial Services, LLC

My name is Marold Studesville, Owner and CEO of Transport Financial Services, LLC (TFS), an acknowledged surety provided by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) and Department of Transportation (DOT) of the full range of legal, administrative, and operational resources necessary for the success of Brokers, Shippers, Motor Carriers, and Freight Forwarders.

As a retired veteran, having served twenty-eight (28) years in the U. S. Army and a credentialed educator, my true vision has been realized by bringing an old transportation industry into the 21st Century. My diverse military career was directly linked to data analysis and developing proactive data monitoring solutions. It was a natural progression upon retiring in 2003 to transcend this knowledge into my next vocation, a career in transportation, and establish a transportation platform to meet the needs of Carriers, Brokers, Shippers, and Freight Forwarders.

Working with Partners

By working with partners for our clients, TFS gains deeper levels of expertise that would not be financially feasible for TFS to retain in-house on a long-term basis. This allows TFS clients to control their expenditures on partner services by only purchasing hours that are needed.

TFS works with partners on behalf of clients that provide their advice in a variety of forms and professional arenas. From legal, freight, auto transport, rail, inter modal to marketing, accounting, insurance and factoring, TFS has partners that can meet all your business needs.
