Veaceslav Maly: From Moldova to the Global Stage in Logistics

10 December

Veaceslav Maly’s story is one of perseverance, ambition, and an unwavering commitment to excellence. Born and raised in Chișinău, Moldova, Veaceslav’s early passion for mathematics and problem-solving led him to graduate from the State University of Moldova with a bachelor’s degree in Cybernetics in 2008. His analytical mindset and drive for success laid a solid foundation for what would become a remarkable career.

Eager to explore new horizons, Veaceslav moved to the United States, where he began his journey in the trucking industry. Starting from humble beginnings in 2008, he quickly rose through the ranks, transitioning from operating a single truck to owning his first semi-truck. But Veaceslav’s vision extended beyond personal success; he sought to reshape the logistics industry.

In 2012, alongside his wife, Kate Minasyan, Veaceslav co-founded AFC Transport, a company focused on innovation and addressing inefficiencies in transportation. The company’s success led to the launch of AFC Logistics in 2016, a business dedicated to delivering top-tier solutions in freight and logistics across the United States.

Veaceslav’s pursuit of knowledge didn’t end with his early academic achievements. Recognizing the importance of lifelong learning, he earned a Master of Business Administration (MBA) from Roosevelt University in 2021. To further refine his leadership and strategic skills, he completed the prestigious Executive Program for Growing Companies at Stanford University Graduate School of Business in 2022.

Under Veaceslav’s leadership, AFC Logistics has become a trailblazer in the industry, achieving recognition such as:

2 Fastest Growing Company in Tampa Bay

2 in Logistics and Transportation on the Inc 5000 list.

Veaceslav’s vision is guided by core values: Excellence, Integrity, and Innovation. With these principles, he has built a company that not only meets industry challenges but also sets new standards.

Despite his demanding career, Veaceslav remains deeply connected to his Moldovan roots, often crediting his upbringing in Chișinău for instilling the resilience and work ethic that drive him today. His journey serves as an inspiration, showcasing how a foundation built on education, determination, and vision can lead to global success.
