Affordable luxury transportation services in Gig Harbor
By Jillian Chandler
After a decade in business serving Seattle and the surrounding areas, Bijo Cherian is thrilled to bring his All Black Limo services right here to Gig Harbor.
Established in 2014, Bijo took the reins as both owner and operator of All Black Limo transportation services. “It's been an incredible decade-long journey since we first opened our doors, and looking back, it's been 10 years filled with growth, learning, and countless memorable experiences with our clients,” he reflects.
In February 2024, Bijo made the strategic decision to relocate their base of operations to Gig Harbor, a move motivated by the realization that Gig Harbor was a growing community in dire need of reliable, affordable transportation options. “Recognizing the potential to serve and make a significant impact in one of the Puget Sound region’s fastest-growing neighborhoods, we saw this as an opportunity not just for business growth but also to contribute positively to the community’s development,” Bijo notes.
Bijo’s journey began as a Lyft driver, a role he embraced wholeheartedly for a year. It was during this time that he gained invaluable experiences while realizing it wasn’t the right fit for him long term. “This realization sparked a curiosity in me to explore other avenues within the transportation sector, leading me to the idea of creating a more personalized and comprehensive airport transfer service. In 2014, with a vision to offer something unique and customer focused, All Black Limo was born,” shares Bijo.
On a more personal note, Bijo shares that his journey from India to the United States at the tender age of 9, followed by his family's successful venture into business in New York, has been a significant part of his narrative. “My experiences, first within my family's business, then with the DOJ and DHS, and later in the airline industry, have all shaped my entrepreneurial spirit. This spirit, combined with a keen desire to serve and make a difference in the transportation industry, led me to establish All Black Limo,” Bijo states.
“Our humble beginnings with a single car and the transition to a fleet of nine vehicles and 10 dedicated chauffeurs is a testament to our commitment to not just excellence in service but also to creating meaningful employment opportunities within our community. A special thanks to my initial days with Lyft, which not only helped me identify a gap in the market but also provided the means to venture into this fulfilling journey.”
Today, All Black Limo prides themselves on offering a diverse fleet of vehicles to cater to their clients’ varied needs, including stylish Sedans, spacious SUVs, luxurious limos, and versatile Sprinters. Their services are designed to “add a touch of elegance and convenience to any occasion” — be it airport or cruise transfers, wedding celebrations, birthdays, quinceañeras, prom nights, concerts, sports events, corporate gatherings, or even running the occasional errand. “Our aim is to ensure that every journey with us is not just a trip but a memorable experience,” Bijo adds.
Their dedication — coupled with their commitment to understanding and accommodating their clients’ unique needs — ensures flexible, reliable and seamless service. Additionally, their rides are backed by a comprehensive $1 million liability insurance policy, offering clients peace of mind with every journey.
What truly sets All Black Limo apart is its foundation as a family owned business, which allows them to offer a personal touch and a steadfast commitment to excellence that’s rare to find. Bijo and his team go above and beyond to ensure drivers are not just highly skilled but also share the values of trustworthiness and professionalism. Their vetting process for chauffeurs is rigorous and includes comprehensive background checks and drug tests.
For Bijo, one of the most rewarding aspects of running All Black Limo is the flexibility it affords him and his team, allowing them to break free from the confines of a traditional 9 to 5 schedule. “This flexibility not only enables us to serve our clients more effectively but also contributes to a healthy work-life balance for our team, enhancing overall job satisfaction and well-being.
”As the summer months are sure to be filled with travel, adventure, special occasions and events, let Bijo and All Black Limo take care of all your transportation needs.
