Like TrumpCard, ASAP specializes in shipments which are of high consequence, and must arrive as the name implies, as soon as possible.

Founded in 2008, ASAP distinguishes itself with its recognition of the value of uptime, and the cost of downtime to manufacturing and productivity. Aptly named, as soon as possible shipments are their expertise: anytime, anywhere, any situation. “We are very excited to forge the next of phase of ASAP and could not have found a better home. TrumpCard and ASAP have very similar cultures and recognize that our people are what make us who we are”, shared Angela and Garland Hobgood, President & CEO of ASAP, respectively.

“TrumpCard’s specialization and unique value proposition has always allowed us to set ourselves apart from other service providers. We found the same rare quality in ASAP, and now can expand our service offering, while leveraging the core resources of TrumpCard”, said Marco Hanlon, Executive Chairman.

ASAP’s office in Columbia, South Carolina, is strategically placed to service its surrounding manufacturing corridor. Fully operational, complete with some of the best people in the industry, ASAP will continue its great legacy, now with the support you would expect of a TrumpCard Signature Service.

Magnate Worldwide is committed to organic growth and growth through select acquisitions. “ASAP and TrumpCard are each very special companies, built upon satisfying the most demanding and unique shipping circumstances. The joining of these strengths forms a landmark partnership of two companies with exceptional leadership, and a laser-like market focus”, said Dante Fornari, CEO of Magnate Worldwide.
