As the presenting sponsor of the event, Expediter Services (ES) will be highly visible at the Expedite Expo. ES will also be hosting the IN-SITE Dinner at the Expo, a special event that will look at current conditions in the trucking industry and the opportunities offered through ES.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – June 18, 2021 – Expediter Services (ES), a leader in capacity solutions and ownership opportunities within the trucking industry, is pleased to announce that the company will be serving as the presenting sponsor for the return of the Expedite Expo, which will be held July 16-17 in Fort Wayne, Ind. Hosted by On Time Media, the Expedite Expo, which was unable to take place in 2020 due to the global pandemic, is the largest trade show of its kind, bringing together expediters from across North America. The Expo offers 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 2021 edition of the Expedite Expo will be held at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum Conference Center in Fort Wayne, and the return of the event will mark a milestone as the Expedite Expo will be celebrating its 20th anniversary.

“The Expedite Expo has always been an important event for ES because it directly connects with our company’s roots in the expedited sector. This year’s Expo will definitely be special for all of us at ES. We are looking forward to the opportunities that we will have to make in-person connections with the people coming to an event that has become a tradition within expedite,” said Jeff Tacker, Chief Operating Officer of ES. “The Expedite Expo is the perfect size for exhibitors and attendees, and Expediter Services is thrilled to once again be the title sponsor for an event that will be marking its 20th anniversary.

“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,” added Tacker, who also serves as the Chief Commercial Officer for ES. 

As the presenting sponsor of the event, ES will be highly visible at the Expedite Expo. ES will occupy the largest booth at the show, which will be located center stage on the main floor. In addition, ES will be featured at a second booth within the exhibit hall that will be dedicated to truck sales. ES will also be hosting the largest event during the 20th annual Expedite Expo when the company holds its IN-SITE Dinner at the Expo.

Taking place on Friday, July 16, the IN-SITE Dinner at the Expo offers a unique opportunity for all current and prospective qualified contractors attending the Expo. This special IN-SITE event from ES begins with the doors opening at 4:30 p.m. and dinner being served beginning at 5:00 in Banquet Room B inside the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum Conference Center. Courtesy of ES, the IN-SITE 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 IN-SITE event 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 while getting an introduction to the programs available through ES. Attendees at the IN-SITE Dinner in Fort Wayne will hear an overview of the truck ownership opportunities offered through ES with financing at competitive market rates.

Those in attendance at the dinner will also learn about the strong nationwide fuel network within the ES Community, featuring some of the largest discounts in the industry along with information on other savings opportunities and the business services that ES has provided for more than a decade.

“One of the benefits that we see with the return of the Expedite Expo and our IN-SITE Dinner is that it will give us the chance to talk about the unrivaled advantages that ES brings to the market for owner-operators, independent contractors and fleet owners who are part of where the rubber meets the road in the expedited sector. We have a comprehensive set of programs and offerings that can pave the way for greater levels of success in trucking,” said Tacker. “Most importantly, the 20th anniversary of the Expedite Expo will provide our ES Team with the opportunity to reconnect with people in the expedite community.

“Over the years, we have deeply valued the time we are able to spend getting 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 dinners that we’ve held in past years,” added Tacker. “I can tell you that we can trace many of the relationships that ES has built over the years in expedite back to a first meeting that happened during the Expedite Expo. If you have an interest in expediting and you want to explore opportunities for ownership in trucking, the Expedite Expo is definitely worth your time and the trip to Fort Wayne.”
