Q & A With Ashish Tandon & Abhitan Tandon, Co-Founders of Godspeed Group



How did you come up with the idea to start the Godspeed Group, and what purpose did you intend to serve with the concept?

We are a premier provider of front-line workforce solutions in the industry.  We have built the business on trust and respect for people.   

We founded the Godspeed Group with an honest entrepreneurial, can-do spirit, and began operations in 2014 with a single truck that provided dedicated cartage through the length and breadth of the Greater Toronto Area. We quickly discovered a significant gap within the market of frontline personnel shortages. Our vision was to create a premium calibre brand providing “workforce solutions “. Godspeed Group grew at a remarkable pace over the years that followed. We wanted our dedication to become the bedrock of the company and this continues to be one of Godspeed Group’s core values, today.

Our company offers Staffing Solutions and Logistic Services throughout the province of Ontario.  We have more than 2,100 committed AZ/DZ/G drivers, forklift operators, warehouse, cargo handlers, administrative, and configuration technician associates. thus, making us the one-stop solution for transportation, warehouse, manufacturing, and food services requirements.

The business is created on the foundation of innovation, growth, and solid relationships. Godspeed Group is constantly listening to the evolving needs of the industry and dedicated to providing the highest level of service to clients and carriers. We aim to innovate and create customized transportation and staffing solutions that meet the unique requirements of each client we serve.

We are leaping into 2022 with strong ambition!


 

Which steps have you taken for the company to achieve the level of consumer trust that has been nationally recognized? 

Customers require consistent performance and qualified people attending their business premises on time. If an error occurs, the correction is swift and prompt. Commitments are always delivered !  


What part of your education or other experiences do you feel was the most helpful in preparing you for success? 

We, the co-founders, were educated in Australia, UK, and Canada.  This background provided an international context of conducting business and for learning varying philosophies in the process. Initial employment at the American Express corporation provided us with foundational sales process training. 



Which strategies have you found the most effective in growing your audience/ bringing awareness of your service to a larger consumer group? 

Our key strategy was/is to develop solid, personal-based relationships with each client, leveraging business networks and with word-of-mouth testimony validating the consistent quality of service. 


Which partnerships, if any, have been the most constructive in bringing your goals closer to becoming a reality?

We have established key partnerships throughout the industry to increase the depth and capability of the company’s services 


Are there any challenges that made it difficult to continue operation and that you managed to overcome? What was your approach to get past these?

Being new to Canada, approx. 12 years ago, presented challenges, as our business network connections had not been established. With significant effort and visiting businesses “door to door” our journey was well underway.  

How do you balance work, passions/hobbies, and relationships?

Our family is first and foremost. They are extremely supportive of the considerable efforts required in driving the rapid growth of the company. 

    

What are your future plans to build on your personal/ company achievements and fulfill your vision for success/ what developments can your audience or clientele look forward to expecting next?

Our strategic plan is prioritized in establishing a national footprint throughout Canada. Subsequently, we will target expansion in very specific markets within the U.S.

    


What advice would you like to give readers that hope to achieve success in your field?

Deliver consistent results to each and every customer while providing competitive pricing. When errors occur – deal with them in a highly transparent fashion and do it quickly!
