The company was formed in 2000 as a successor to the former Société de transport du Cap-Vert (Cape Verde Transport Company; SOTRAC).[2] Its Director General is Me Moussa Diop.[1][3]

In 2015, DDD ordered a fleet of 475 buses from Ashok Leyland of India, at a cost of 47 million CFA Francs (then 71.6 million Euros).[2]

As of 2015, it ran seventeen-lines in Dakar, carrying 50 million passengers per year, using 408 buses.[2]

The trade union Dakar Dem Dikk Workers Democratic Union represents their workers.
