Fresco, California-based trucking company TGS Transportation has officially closed after four decades of service in the industry. Established in the early 1980s, TGS Transportation built a reputation for reliability and quality service, becoming a staple in the local logistics and transportation sector. The decision to cease operations comes as a shock to many employees and clients who have relied on the company for their freight needs.

The closure is attributed to a combination of factors, including increasing operational costs, competition from larger companies, and challenges in the supply chain exacerbated by recent economic conditions. Many long-time employees expressed their sadness over the closure, reflecting on the strong community and family-like atmosphere that the company fostered over the years.

As the trucking industry continues to evolve, the loss of TGS Transportation serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by smaller businesses. The community will undoubtedly feel the impact of this significant loss, both economically and emotionally.
