About Victory Transportation Systems - Houston Trucking Company Since 2003
Built in Houston. Proven Nationwide. Focused on Safety and Delivering Excellence Since 2003.
Our Beginnings
Victory Transportation Systems was founded in 2003 in Houston, Texas, with four employees and ten owner operators. The company's goal was to become one of Houston's leading trucking companies by offering the highest level safety and legendary service. On September 3, 2003, owner operator Anthony Cooper performed Victory Transportation Systems' first delivery, and we are proud that Anthony is still part of Victory Transportation Systems today.

Our Vision
We will be the recognized leader and preferred provider of Hot Shot and Intermodal transportation in Houston by setting the standard of excellence in performance and reputation. We will deliver solution driven services and be a blessing to the communities we serve.
The Victory Transportation Systems Way
1: We Are Safety Driven
The safety of our owner operators, customers, and the motoring public is always at the forefront of everything we do. We view health, safety, quality, and environmental stewardship as fundamental responsibilities that guide every aspect of our operations. Continual guidance and routine training help improve our safe work behaviors and safety procedures. We hire only qualified, safe, and service-driven drivers who represent Victory’s values.
2. We Drive Growth
We go above and beyond for our customers. We demonstrate relentless focus and discipline to set and achieve our and our clients’ goals. We are motivated to dominate the Houston trucking market, and we seek positive results, never settling for anything less than excellence. We challenge ourselves to achieve the highest levels of performance and accountability and results regardless of challenges or resistance. Until action is turned into success, we are not done.
3. We Deliver Excellence with Legendary Service
We are committed to delivering legendary service in every interaction, every load, and every relationship. We understand that our customers have a choice, and we work hard to earn their trust through reliability, responsiveness, and professionalism. We take ownership of every challenge and remain focused on providing solutions. We believe that by consistently exceeding expectations, we create lasting partnerships and a reputation that sets us apart from our competition.
4. We Go the Extra Mile
We are always asking ourselves: “How can we break through the limitations we’ve set for ourselves?” and “How can we get better and be better?” We consider every situation as an opportunity to grow, and we consistently give back to our team and community. We are committed to getting better every day and in everything we do as individuals and as a company. By being aware of the effects of our actions, we actively ensure our success through visualizing and understanding the big picture. We understand that attention to detail is vital and the lack thereof can affect us. We have BIG goals and dreams!
5. We Give Back
We love making the world a better place. We believe as a company and as individuals that we have a responsibility to be leaders in our industry, workplace, and community. We focus on service above self and are passionate about making a profound impact on our community. Through our Give Back Program, we encourage our team members to support their charitable organization of choice by volunteering once a quarter.
6. We Do the Right Thing Always
We are committed to conducting ourselves honestly, ethically, and morally in every action and interaction. We take pride in building trust. Our core values serve as our compass for decision making. We believe that every individual we interact with deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. We do it right the first time and put processes in place to ensure integrity is always upheld. The Victory team believes every action we take must create value for our customers, our community, and our company.
7. We Are a Team of Ideal Team Players
Through the spirit of our comradery, we share ideas, efforts, and resources to win. We anticipate our customers’ needs and always aim to outperform and exceed their expectations. We take pride in our work and go the extra mile. We are go-getters, problem solvers, and are humble, hungry, and smart.
- Humble: We share credit and emphasize teamwork. We leave our egos at the door, hold ourselves accountable, and admit to our mistakes.
- Hungry: We are always looking for more to do, more to learn, and embracing greater responsibility. We are not satisfied with mediocrity and are motivated to dominate, not just “win.”
- Smart: We are intuitive and use good judgment. We are confident and trusting. We listen, communicate, and collaborate to deliver excellence.
8. We Inspect What We Expect
We do what we say, meet our commitments, and provide a consistent, positive customer experience with relentless focus and discipline. We listen intently and communicate effectively. Victory’s owner operators are outfitted with proper PPE and go the extra mile to deliver our customers’ freight safely and on time. We show pride, passion, and dedication in everything to do and have an obsession with WOWing our customers.
9. We Dress for Success
We understand that how we present ourselves reflects who we are as individuals and as a company. We take pride in our appearance, our equipment, our facilities, and our work because we believe professionalism matters. Whether we are meeting with customers, visiting job sites, working in the office, or representing Victory on the road, we strive to make a positive first impression.
10. We Have Fun
We believe that work should be challenging, rewarding, and enjoyable. While we are serious about our responsibilities, we also understand the importance of celebrating successes, building relationships, and enjoying the journey together. By having fun and enjoying what we do, we build a workplace where people want to be and where success can thrive.
