(It’s more entertaining than they make it sound on the mission page of their website.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This year we once again sent our Business Development and Customer Service Managers to the 2012 ECA Marketplace Event in Chicago, for 3 whirlwind days of:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

* Networking with other Carriers & Vendors from across the USA

 

 

* Dynamic speed interviews with Shippers; potential clients looking for regional Carriers like Metro Delivery

 

 

 

* Transportation education & information sessions & conversations

 

 

 

 

 

 

* And incidentally, an amazing array of carnivorous choices provided by the stockyards of  Chicago & the excellent kitchen at the Hyatt Regency O’Hare, along with other fortifying refreshments, Roulette and Blackjack tables for a charitable cause, and a jazz band. See? Now it sounds fun, doesn’t it?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It was nice to have the conference close to home,  in Chicago; it’s a great town, and just a 3.5 hour drive from our home base, which means we don’t have to fly but can stick to the surface transportation we’re most familiar with.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks for having us, ECA! See you next year!
