Area trucking company grows through focus on service

Sarasota-based trucking company Black Hawk Logistics has built a solid business transporting refrigerated and dry goods, primarily produce, dairy and ice cream.

Now the company, previously based in Colorado before Vasil Gushterov, the owner and president, moved the headquarters to Sarasota, is getting into a new line of work that can deliver even more growth: brokering the shipment of goods. Logistics and brokerage entities have grown rapidly in the region, as the prevalence of ecommerce puts a premium on things like last-mile delivery and reliable service.
