History
NLS Transportation was founded in 1989 by Nader Dababo, who launched the company with a single sedan in Redwood City as Silicon Valley emerged as the center of the technology industry. Before founding NLS, Nader worked in the transportation industry, progressing from driving buses and taxis to serving as a private chauffeur. In the early days he served as the sole chauffeur and dispatcher, operating out of a single luxury Lincoln Town Car without a formal corporate headquarters, anchoring his presence at the Palace Hotel. The company describes itself as family-operated and states that it has grown from a single car in Silicon Valley into a global network, operating from two principal California hubs in the San Francisco Bay Area and Los Angeles County and extending to over a thousand cities worldwide through a vetted affiliate network.
