What I'm looking for

I seek a role that allows me to leverage my entrepreneurial skills while contributing to impactful projects in travel consultancy, trucking, warehouse and logistics.

I am Lawal Dare Tosin, a dedicated entrepreneur with extensive experience in the travel and logistics industry. As the Founder and CEO of Darilat Travel and Logistics Services Ltd, I have successfully built a company that prioritizes customer satisfaction and operational excellence. My journey began as a Ticketing Officer at Bomfas Travel & Tours, where I honed my skills in ticketing and reservations, leading to my current role where I manage a diverse team and oversee all aspects of the business.

In addition to my entrepreneurial ventures, I am also the Founder of the Mental Aid Foundation, demonstrating my commitment to giving back to the community. My experience as a Managing Partner at Philoseph Integrated Services has further enriched my understanding of business development and strategic planning. I am passionate about helping the less privileged and aim to create one of Nigeria's best-organized travel and transport companies, focusing on quality over size.
