We all know that the transportation industry has experienced rough times over the past year. And with the introduction of the Covid-19 virus into the continental United States, the economy, and life as we know it has taken a dramatic turn towards a slowdown and “social distancing”. As a result, many of us are feeling the ripple effects of this unprecedented disruption.
In uncertain times, it’s often our faith and the support of our families that helps us cope with the everyday struggles in life. But when it comes to your business, you can count on the ES community, made up of carriers, vendors and people, to help provide the support you need to not only survive, but to thrive during times of difficult freight and even economic turmoil.
Think of the ES community as the roots of the giant redwood trees that live along the Pacific coastline. Each of these trees have the potential to grow and thrive for thousands of years. When viewed from a distance, redwoods look like they grow majestically as individuals at heights of up to three hundred and fifty feet tall. But scientific studies have shown that each redwood tree is interconnected to each other via a strong intertwining root system. This community structure helps stabilize against storms and erosion. The interconnectivity is the key to their success as a species — they support each other; just like ES supports YOU, no matter the road ahead, so you Never Stand Alone! ES is optimistic about You, the resilience of the American economy and the future of freight!

You Don’t Have to Wait for the SITE to buy a truck. It’s What We Do Everyday!
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.”
