About 5 Stars Meridian
5 Stars Meridian is a specialized brand created by Viae Group in 2021 to serve the transportation needs of clients in the New Rochelle area. This brand was established with a unique purpose: to support the philanthropic and community-driven initiatives of Thomas Hartman, a retired New Rochelle resident whose deep involvement in local causes has inspired many. Although Thomas is not the founder of the brand, his commitment to using transportation as a means to amplify charitable work and strengthen community engagement was the catalyst behind the creation of 5 Stars Meridian. The brand delivers corporate-class service while also providing logistical support for community events and outreach activities.
