MEMPHIS, TENN. (PRWEB)?JULY 09, 2019 - ES, a leader in capacity solutions and ownership opportunities within the trucking industry, will be serving as the title sponsor of the 19th Annual Expedite Expo, which will be held July 19-20 in Fort Wayne, Ind. Hosted by On Time Media, the Expedite Expo is the largest trade show of its kind, bringing together expediters from across North America and offering a platform for attendees to learn about career opportunities, the latest advancements in equipment as well as products geared specifically for owner-operators, contractors and drivers of medium-duty and heavy-duty trucks.
The Expedite Expo will be held at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum Conference Center in Fort Wayne.
As the title sponsor of the event, ES will be highly visible at the Expedite Expo. ES will be located center stage on the main floor, and the company has also reserved an area outside to exhibit ES truck sales. Once again, ES will be hosting the Summer ES Group Gathering, an annual event that has become known as ?The EGG at the Expo.?
The EGG at the Expo will take place on Friday, July 19th, with dinner being served beginning at 5:00 p.m. in Banquet Room B inside the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum Conference Center. Open to all current and prospective qualified contractors, the EGG at the Expo provides attendees with an informal setting where they can get to know members of the ES team, hear informative updates on the latest trends in trucking and get an introduction to the programs available through ES. Attendees at the EGG in Fort Wayne will hear an overview of the truck ownership opportunities offered with financing at competitive market rates. They will also learn about the wide range of support services available through ES, including some of the largest discounts on fuel and other services as well as information on the business services that ES can provide. Courtesy of ES, the EGG At The Expo dinner is free to all attendees of the event, and the ES Team has planned a terrific menu for the meal.
?The Expedite Expo has always been an important event for ES because it directly connects with our company?s roots in the expedited sector. We are looking forward to being a part of the event as it moves to Fort Wayne. The Expedite Expo is the perfect size for exhibitors and attendees, and ES is thrilled to once again be the title sponsor for the event,? said ES President Jason Williams. ?On Time Media has done a great job over the years with the development of an event that has valuable programming for professional contract drivers, owner-operators, fleet owners, expedited carriers and the supporting services offered within our industry. If you want to get the latest information first-hand on expediting, the Expedite Expo is definitely worth your time and the trip to Fort Wayne.?
The trip for the ES Team to the Expedite Expo will mark the second time in two months that company officials have traveled to Indiana for a trucking event. In June, ES served as the host of the inaugural Success In Trucking Expo (SITE), which was held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway complex.
?The SITE went very well and we heard a number of positive comments about the event, and we believe the Expedite Expo will provide ES with two very valuable opportunities,? said Williams. ?First of all, the Expedite Expo offers an opportunity for anyone who missed us at the SITE to visit with us in person. Secondly, this event will give us the chance to reconnect with people in the expedite community. Over the years, we have really valued the opportunities to get to know people who have visited our booth at the Expedite Expo. We also are very appreciative of everyone who has joined us for the EGG at the Expo dinners. We can look back and see that many of the relationships that ES has built over the years with the people in our program began at the Expedite Expo.?
One of the programs slated to be in the spotlight during this year?s Expo will be the 150 Business Challenge, which is a collaboration between the Women In Trucking Association and ES to encourage the development of 150 women-owned businesses in transportation. During the first 12 months of the program, the 150 Business Challenge reached the halfway mark toward its goal. Many of the participants in the 150 Business Challenge have based their operations in the expedited sector. Forward Air and Panther Premium Logistics, a Service of ArcBest, are the participating carriers in the program, offering consistent freight opportunities to entrepreneurs in the 150 Business Challenge.
Similar to the other truck ownership programs offered through ES, participants in the 150 Business Challenge have access to competitive market-rate financing, a broad range of new equipment choices and fuel discounts. ES also provides participants with industry-leading support, featuring a maintenance program and operational expertise as well as back-office services and business planning assistance.
?The 150 Business Challenge has continued to gain greater interest across the industry in both the expedited sector and general trucking. We are looking forward talking to people about the 150 Business Challenge and all the offerings that ES has available during the Expedite Expo,? said Williams. ?Most of all, we are looking forward to meeting new people who are coming to the Expo for the first time and to seeing the familiar faces who will be returning to the Expo. This event is always a lot of fun.?
