Chief Executive Officer
Leadership that closes international deals.
CEO Tomas Vacilevich brings more than 20 years of experience in retail, import/export and trade. He has led high-level international negotiations, including landmark agreements with Chinese companies to invest in lithium extraction and processing in Ethiopia through our partner, Charis Export.
Strategy only matters when it survives contact with payroll, contracts and real customers.
About us
Built on two decades of enterprise experience.
Devine Business Group LLC was founded in January 2025 in Maryland and works internationally through our partnership with Charis Export. We provide reliable transportation, delivery and hauling services, are expanding into surplus equipment liquidation, and advise businesses on growth and capital.
Our story
From trade and logistics to boardroom strategy.
Our CEO, Tomas Vacilevich, has spent more than 20 years in retail, import/export and trade, and works collaboratively with our partner, Charis Export, in Ethiopia's mining sector. That work taught us how capital, logistics, compliance and people have to move together for a venture to last.
Today we bring that discipline to the Washington, DC region. We move patients, packages and equipment across Montgomery and Prince George's counties, DC and Northern Virginia, give surplus equipment a second life, and help other business leaders plan growth and structure capital.
Mission
To serve our region with safe, reliable transportation and asset services, and to give business owners the strategy and capital discipline they need to build lasting enterprises.
Vision
To be the most trusted partner for transportation, asset services and enterprise growth in the Mid-Atlantic.
