I'm asked often how did you come up with the name? That answer was simple. I wanted a name that was easy to remember and a business I can pass down to my kids. My mom had three boys and for some reason, both she and my pops decided our names would begin with a T...Tarey, Todd, and Travis. I followed her lead and named my boys Travis and Tidas, my middle brother followed the same plan and named his boys, Travante and Tavis with a small twist Miles and Mitchell, either way, it was enough T's to name the business TNTWORLDWIDE.
As I got older, the TNT became a pain in the tail when sending people to the website, so I kept it simple and dropped the TNT, plus Worldwide sounded bold and powerful and was a perfect representation of my company and my thinking. Take your DREAMS WorldWide...
The 1865 tag was a small twist I added to the logo to remind me that my Grandmother, Sylvia Johnson, raised 8 kids in a 1 bedroom house, picked cotton and worked in a basket factory for 65 cents per hr. Her mother picked cotton and her daughters and my mother picked cotton during the summer.
I would be the FIRST in our generation to SELL IT. I prefer to call it "FLIPPING COTTON." We're DONE PICKING COTTON, I hope you FEEL ME!!!
