Houston Businesswoman Surpasses 30 Year Milestone in Male-Dominated Industry

April 25, 2011 - PRLog -- Burnett Jackson, CEO and Founder of Burnett's Package Express, is celebrating surpassing the 30th anniversary of the business. Burnett’s Package Express was started in March of 1980 with little capital and a lot of determination. The Houston-based transportation and courier company has grown from one employee to a current staff of 35 and continues to experience growth despite a turbulent economy.

“Reaching this milestone is the result of hard work, determination and focus”, says Jackson. “The transportation industry is still very much male-dominated but I’ve always had a hands-on approach to business and never sacrificed exceptional customer service for profit. You can’t reach a tremendous milestone in your business unless you are 100% committed to the business and your customers.”

“Burnett’s Package Express has been the choice of Williams Brother Construction, Inc. for eight years,” says Administrative Assistant Corina Dominguez. “We continue to be pleased with the prompt service and professional and courteous drivers.”

Jackson is a self-made woman who plays an active role in the day-to-day operations of the delivery service.  Ms. Jackson’s “clients first” philosophy attributes to the overall success of Burnett's Package Express.  The Houston-based courier service has been acclaimed as an "up and coming woman-owned business" by the U. S. Census Bureau, and has been spotlighted in numerous newspaper and print articles.  The company is a member of the Houston Minority Business Council, Greater Houston Partnership, National Association of Women Business Owners and Messenger Courier Association of Americas.

Burnett’s Package Expresses can deliver one small envelope up to 23,000 pounds. Local and long-haul delivery is available and same day delivery service to Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas and other neighboring states is offered. Long haul cargo trucking is available to anywhere statewide.
