Since 2006, ES has gained a reputation as a company on-the-move in the transportation industry. From our innovative Path To Ownership that takes your attitude, aptitude and work history into account when it comes to financing a truck; to the 150 Women-Owned business Challenge providing opportunities for women in transportation; to our investment in people, technologies and infrastructure, ES has built a community of support to help you become a Success In Trucking.
As we continue to grow and support this community, please help us welcome Seth Reid, Service Coordinator and newest member of the ES team.
Seth Reid, ES Service Coordinator
Seth was born in the Mid-South and graduated from the University of Memphis, where he studied and became fluent in Spanish. His professional background includes manufacturing, where he put his linguistic skills to good use. “I was born and raised in the Memphis area where I took a class to learn the ancient Latin language and then two classes to learn Spanish. I graduated from the University of Memphis with two more classes in Spanish. I lived in Houston for several years after I finished school where I worked in a manufacturing plant where I was one of a few English speakers amongst hundreds of Spanish speakers. For the past four years at a factory in Memphis I worked closely with many Latinos, mostly Guatemalan, each day improving my ability to converse more effectively with my Hispanic friends and co-workers. I’m looking forward to using my Spanish speaking skills to help support the ES community,” Said Reid.
The ES community is broad and diverse, and we welcome opportunities to help strengthen and build this community for everyone.
Desde 2006, ES ha ganado una reputación como una empresa en movimiento en la industria del transporte. Desde nuestro innovador “Camino A La Propiedad” que tiene en cuenta su actitud, aptitud e historial laboral cuando se trata de financiar un camión; al “Desafío por 150 Negocios Propiedad de Mujeres” que brinda oportunidades a las mujeres en el transporte; a nuestra inversión en personas, tecnologías e infraestructura, ES ha creado una comunidad de apoyo para ayudarlo a convertirse en un “Éxito En El Transporte Por Carretera.”
A medida que continuamos creciendo y apoyando a esta comunidad, ayúdenos a darle la bienvenida a Seth Reid, coordinador de servicios y nuevo miembro del equipo de ES.
Seth Reid, Coordinador de servicios de ES
Seth nació en el Medio Sur de la pais y se graduó de la Universidad de Memphis, donde estudió y aprendió español con fluidez. Su experiencia profesional incluye la fabricación, donde aprovechó sus habilidades lingüísticas. “Nací y crecí en el área de Memphis, donde tomé una clase para aprender el antiguo idioma latino y luego dos clases para aprender español. Me gradué de la Universidad de Memphis con dos clases más en español. Viví en Houston durante varios años después de terminar la escuela, donde trabajé en una planta de fabricación donde era uno de los pocos angloparlantes entre cientos de hispanohablantes. Así que durante los últimos cuatro años en una fábrica en Memphis, trabajé estrechamente con muchos latinos, en su mayoría guatemaltecos, cada día mejorando mi capacidad de conversar de manera más efectiva con mis amigos y compañeros de trabajo hispanos. Tengo muchas ganas de utilizar mis habilidades de habla hispana para ayudar a apoyar a la comunidad de ES “, dijo Reid.
La comunidad de ES es amplia y diversa, y agradecemos las oportunidades para ayudar a fortalecer y construir esta comunidad para todos.

Bobby Bowden Named Keynote Speaker for SITE 2020
The Success In Trucking Expo is thrilled to welcome legendary football coach Bobby Bowden as the keynote speaker on the first day of the SITE 2020. Known as much for his affable charm as he is for his championship teams, Coach Bowden made an impact on both the young men he coached and the sport of football during a career that spanned seven decades. Coach Bowden, who retired in 2009, stands today as the second-winningest coach in major college football history.
Coach Bowden led Florida State University, and he built the football program into a perennial powerhouse, winning two national championships and earning 22 postseason bowl victories at the helm of FSU. Coach Bowden’s FSU teams dominated the Atlantic Coast Conference, winning 12 consecutive conference titles. In addition, Florida State finished within the top five ranked teams in the nation for 14 straight seasons. In his 44 seasons overall as a head football coach, Bowden compiled 40 winning seasons, including 33 straight at FSU.
Off the field, Coach Bowden is the author and co-author of several books, and he has served as a leading voice for the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. In fact, the FCA has named an annual award in honor of Coach Bowden. The Bobby Bowden Student-Athlete of the Year Award recognizes one college football player for achievements on the field, in the classroom and in the community.
A 2006 inductee into the College Football Hall of Fame, Coach Bowden and his wife, Ann, have been married for 61 years. They live in Tallahassee, Florida.
“We are very proud to welcome Coach Bowden as our keynote speaker for this year’s SITE. His record for achieving success on and off the field as well as his dedication to be of service to others during his lifetime are truly inspirational,” said Jason Williams, President of ES. “We are looking forward to hearing what Coach Bowden will be sharing with us at the SITE. We know his message will hit home with everyone in attendance.”

You Don’t Have to Wait for the SITE to buy a truck. It’s What We Do Everyday!
Hosted by Expediter Services (ES), the program format of the SITE, with its speakers, roundtable discussions and chosen topics, is being structured to share industry knowledge and practical experience to benefit the attendees as they look to build, upgrade and expand their businesses. One of the most unique features about the SITE is that ES is offering free hotel accommodations and free meals for prequalified expo registrants. A limited number of those slots are available for the event, and attendees receiving them will be chosen from the registration submissions ES receives.
MEMPHIS, Tenn. – January 29, 2020 – Expediter Services (ES), a leader in capacity solutions and ownership opportunities within the trucking industry, is pleased to announce that the company will once again host the Success In Trucking Expo (SITE). For the second consecutive year, ES has chosen the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Complex as the location for the SITE, which will take place June 5-6.
Through the structure and atmosphere that the event established during its inaugural run in 2019, the SITE stands out when compared to the traditional truck shows currently on the calendar in the overall experience it delivers for those in attendance. Led by the efforts of ES, the participating carriers, sponsors and vendors, the SITE offers a much more personal and hands-on event, providing expert perspective on the state of the industry while offering opportunities to become an entrepreneur and grow a business within trucking. The focus of the SITE 2020 will once again be placed on connecting with professional drivers who are looking to take the next step in their careers and become truck owners. The SITE also offers a platform to help address the needs of contract drivers, owner-operators and fleet owners.
The program format of the SITE, with its speakers, roundtable discussions and chosen topics, is once again being structured to share industry knowledge and practical experience to benefit the attendees as they look to build, upgrade and expand their businesses. ES has established a dedicated website that covers all aspects of the SITE 2020, including registration for the event. The website can be accessed through this link.
“The Success In Trucking Expo is designed to offer solutions to some of the leading challenges in the trucking market today. Whether it’s access to reliable capacity or connecting people with attainable opportunities for truck ownership and steady business growth for entrepreneurs, the 2020 edition of the SITE will be dedicated to providing helpful insights and innovative answers for people looking to achieve greater levels of success in trucking,” said Paul Williams, the Chief Executive Officer of ES. “We are thrilled to bring the SITE back to the home of the Indy 500, and our ES team is focused on creating a meaningful experience for everyone who joins us. We will have a fast-paced and interesting program at the SITE, which provides opportunities for everyone to learn about our ES Community of support. Everyone who joins us at the SITE 2020 will be able to see how ES stands with the participants in our program and offers support in both the best of times and the most challenging times for this industry.”
One of the most unique features about the SITE is that ES is offering free hotel accommodations and free meals for prequalified expo registrants. A limited number of those slots are available for the event, and attendees receiving them will be chosen from the registration submissions ES receives. The registration form for the event can be accessed through this link.
Legendary football coach Bobby Bowden will serve as the keynote speaker on the first day of the SITE 2020. With 377 victories in his career, Bowden is one of the winningest coaches in college football history. From 1976-2009, Bowden led Florida State University, and he built the football program into a perennial powerhouse, winning two national championships and earning 22 postseason bowl victories at the helm of FSU. In his 44 seasons overall as a head football coach, Bowden compiled 40 winning seasons, including 33 straight at FSU.
Off the field, Bowden is the author and co-author of several books, and he has served as a leading voice for the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. In fact, the FCA has named an annual award in honor of Bowden. The Bobby Bowden Student-Athlete of the Year Award recognizes one college football player for achievements on the field, in the classroom and in the community.
“We are very proud to welcome Coach Bowden as our keynote speaker for this year’s SITE. His record for achieving success on and off the field as well as his dedication to be of service to others during his lifetime are truly inspirational,” said Jason Williams, President of ES. “We are looking forward to hearing what Coach Bowden will be sharing with us at the SITE. We know his message will hit home with everyone in attendance.”
ES is building a comprehensive program for the SITE 2020. The motor carriers and vendors participating in the SITE have been hand-picked by ES because of their desire to help the attendees in reaching their goals within the trucking industry.
Stoops Freightliner-Quality Trailer, a division of Truck Country, will serve as the title sponsor of the SITE for the second straight year. The ES Community motor carriers participating in the SITE are FedEx Custom Critical, Forward Air and Panther Premium Logistics, a Service of ArcBest. These three companies, all of which were part of the SITE 2019, will once again be the exclusive motor carriers at the SITE.
Daimler Truck Financial, Detroit Diesel, Equinox Owner-Operator Solutions, Freightliner, Love’s Travel Stops, Paccar Financial, Peterbilt Truck Centers, TA-Petro, TVC Pro Driver, Inc., Vanguard Truck Centers, Volvo Financial Services, Western Star, Crosspoint Power and Refrigeration and the Women In Trucking Association served as vendors at the 2019 SITE. ES officials are expecting the return of last year’s vendors as well as other additions for the SITE 2020.
In addition to the keynote speech by Coach Bowden, the SITE 2020 will feature industry leaders and subject-matter experts sharing their insights through both presentations and discussions. Women In Trucking Association President and CEO Ellen Voie is a part of the speakers list for the SITE 2020 program currently in development by ES.
In November of 2017, ES partnered with the Women In Trucking Association to launch the 150 Business Challenge, a collaborative initiative between the two organizations to create 150 women-owned businesses in transportation. Over the past two-plus years, the 150 Business Challenge is fast approaching 100 new trucking start-ups as a result of participation in the program, which offers an attainable path to financing as well as operational and business support for women who have an interest in a career path within the trucking industry.
Leah Shaver, the Chief Operating Officer of the National Transportation Institute, is one of the industry experts who will be a part of the SITE 2020. Shaver also serves as a host on SiriusXM’s Road Dog Trucking Radio Channel, and she is a member of the Women In Trucking Association’s Board of Directors. She recently participated in the ES Success In Trucking Podcast, discussing changes in the market since the record year of 2018 along with the realities owner-operators often face when launching or attempting to grow a trucking business. During the podcast, Shaver, who serves as a consultant for ES, noted the comprehensive structure of the ES program and the support systems the company has put into place to promote success.
“Truck drivers like freedom and flexibility and that’s why they choose this career. ES is working to help create small businesses with a program that allows the participants to choose the opportunity that is the best fit from a group of partner carriers,” said Shaver. “ES doesn’t stop at financing the truck. The ES Community provides support and leverage. They provide carrier advocacy, allowing a business owner the ability to focus on generating revenue and not on day-to-day issues.
“ES leverages their experience and contacts within the industry to negotiate and make available a variety of other resources and services to their business community,” she added. “The motto at ES is that you never stand alone, and, when you see how ES works with the participants in their programs, it’s clear they live up to that motto every day.”
Since it entered the trucking industry in 2006, ES has utilized a working model that focuses on removing the barriers that hinder professional drivers from becoming truck owners and operating their own small businesses. Through ES, qualified participants in the company’s programs have access to competitive, market-rate financing with a credit-evaluation process that puts an emphasis on attitude, aptitude, work ethic and work history. The ES model has proven to be an effective platform for contract drivers, owner-operators and fleet owners. Today, ES is a leading provider of non-asset capacity within the expedited market, and the company’s platform continues to gain traction within a general trucking market searching for safe, stable, and scalable tractor capacity solutions.
“We are working very hard to do everything that we can to make the SITE 2020 the kind of event that will have a positive impact for everyone who makes the trip to Indianapolis. We are looking forward to working with anyone who is interested in attending. Our goal with the SITE 2020 is to make it a fun, meaningful and memorable experience for everyone involved. Just as we did last year, ES will be providing free hotel accommodations and free meals to prequalified SITE registrants. Don’t wait, there are a limited number of these spots available. Please go to our website, register and start the pre-qualification process. June 5th will be here before you know it,” said Jeff Tacker, the Chief Operating Officer at ES. “If you are interested in true truck ownership with the full support of the ES Community, I would encourage you to visit SuccessInTruckingExpo.com to learn more and to register.”
