AJL International History

AJL International and Matthew Johnston

It’s very hard to talk about AJL International without talking about its Owner and President – Matthew Johnston.

When Matthew Johnston finished high school in 1992, he had two things going for him to begin his career: his knowledge of the limousine industry and his father’s connections. Neal, Matthew’s father, had owned and operated many limousine companies in the Dallas-Fort Worth area since 1967, finishing his run in the industry as the Carey of Dallas franchise from 1980-1988. His primary areas of expertise were funerals, corporate and retail business, and transportation for rock stars.

After years of working at local funeral homes, Matthew Johnston and his brother Michael Johnston launched Johnston Limousines – that was rebranded later as AJL International Worldwide Chauffeured Transportation after merging with Accent Limousine in 1999.

With their father’s connections, it was easy for Johnston to prove himself to the right people and soon he started to handle the local transportation for some of the hottest musical talents, and also their on-the-road transportation needs. For about seven years, Johnston was on the road more than he was in the office, but AJL managed to grow steadily. Actually, always being on the road, helped Matthew Johnston understand how the transportation industry really works around the world. Today, AJL International Worldwide Chauffeured Transportation covers over 450 cities worldwide.

In 2012, Johnston relocated the company in the grounds of Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport. The airport is located between the major cities of Fort Worth and Dallas and is accessible to all the significant dealerships the company uses to service the fleet. This area encompasses 12 counties and almost 7 million people. It is also known as Metroplex and it was listed by Forbes as one of the fastest growing metropolises in the United States.

In 2020, Johnston relocated the company again due to heavy growth and the need for a larger facility. AJL is now located right outside DFW Airport in 40,000 square foot facility located on four acres. This facility will allow AJL plenty of room for more growth over the upcoming years.

Johnston was, is and will always be committed to his team, the people who help him fulfill his vision. He is a people person, and this has always been one of his strengths. Matthew knows that he expects a lot from his team, he maintains an open-door policy with his employees. More than that, he keeps his staff, especially the chauffeurs, as motivated as possible. AJL’s fleet used to be limousines and vans, but today AJL operates a large fleet of sedans, suvs, sprinter vans, mini-bus and motor coaches.

Today, AJL International provides first class chauffeured transportation services for business and association meetings, conventions, incentive meetings, special events, corporate travels, weddings, anniversaries, proms and many more with an unparalleled level of service. We, at AJL International, call DFW home, but through strategic partnerships, we can provide seamless service around the world. Regardless of your transportation needs, we will exceed your highest expectations.
