Veteran Owned Business Cadence Delivery, LLC Celebrates One Year Anniversary

MANSFIELD, Texas - Nov. 17, 2020 - PRLog -- Cadence Delivery, LLC, an Amazon Delivery Service Provider (DSP) recently celebrated its one year business anniversary. The company was founded in 2019 by retired Army veteran Philip Tatum after working as an Operations Manager for Amazon Logistics for 3 years. Currently, Cadence averages 60 daily routes and employs more than 100 full-time employees.

"The transition from military to civilian employment is not always easy", says Philip Tatum, Owner. "I was able to mesh my military experience and education with Amazon's aggressive logistics operations and when the DSP opportunity opened up, it provided an avenue for me to pursue a long time dream of being an entrepreneur."

Tatum is a native of Marshall, Texas and attended Texas College and The University of Houston on a baseball scholarship. He later joined the United States Army where he served for 22 years and retired as a SFC. He holds a Bachelor's degree in Human Resources and a Master's in Management and Leadership.

DSP owners are responsible for the recruitment, training and developing a team of high-performing employees who operate Amazon branded vans and vehicles. Amazon has partnered with DSPs to help deliver thousands of packages to customers daily.

An employee appreciation event was held at The Main Event entertainment complex in Fort Worth. Employees and their guests were treated to dinner, gifts, door prizes and unlimited gaming. Tatum wanted to do something to reward employees for their commitment to excellence during a very stressful and unprecedented time. Social distancing and mask guidelines were in place to protect attendees.

More than 2.4 million U.S. businesses are owned by veterans and account for about nine percent of all American firms.
