Expedite Expo Final Countdown: IN-SITE 2022 Webinar Replay With Panther Premium Helps To Set The Stage for July 15-16

It’s hard to believe that the Expedite Expo is just a matter of days away from taking place in Fort Wayne, Ind. on July 15-16. As you have seen through our posts, ES and Spotlight News have been counting down to the Expedite Expo now for several weeks now.

One of the highlights of our countdown was the June 21st edition of the IN-SITE 2022 Webinar Series, an online event that placed the spotlight on Panther Premium, a Service of ArcBest. Our live webinar event and our video replay has been designed to give everyone the opportunity to meet two of the key people overseeing the recruiting process at Panther Premium Logistics, which is one of the carrier partners in the ES Community.

Panther Webinar

Through the June edition of the IN-SITE, we heard from Frank Tufano, Panther Premium’s Director of Owner-Operator Recruiting, and Cory Robertson, Account Manager-Fleet Recruiting. Frank and Cory provided a detailed look inside the opportunities that are available at Panther as well as how the Panther team works to support trucking professionals running under Panther’s authority.

The ES Team was represented on the webinar panel by David Withers, Senior Director of Operations and Recruiting for ES, and Danny Vernon, the Director of Truck Sales & Finance at ES. David, with his experience in operations and recruiting, spoke to the overall scope of the offerings available from ES while also highlighting the strong working relationship with the team at Panther. Meanwhile, Danny served as a great resource for discussing the current state of equipment and the truck market while also addressing truck financing from ES. The webinar was moderated by Leah Shaver, the President and CEO of the National Transportation Institute.

During the June IN-SITE Webinar, Frank and Cory highlighted Panther’s collaborative initiatives with ES over the years as well as how ES and Panther work together to support independent contract drivers, owner-operators and fleet owners utilizing the programs available from ES. One of the programs discussed during the webinar was the revolutionary non-traditional lease-to-own program that ES developed in collaboration with Panther Premium Logistics.

As Frank and Cory noted during the webinar, they will be onsite and in person with their team from Panther throughout the 2022 Expedite Expo, which will take place July 15-16 at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum in Fort Wayne.

Spotlight News and ES, as part of our countdown to the opening of the Expedite Expo, would like to share the video replay of the June edition of the IN-SITE 2022. If you watch the webinar replay, you will have a strong overview of what’s possible through ES and Panther. For those people planning to come to the Expedite Expo, this webinar will provide an introduction to Frank, Cory, David and Danny – who will all be onsite and available to chat with you at the upcoming Expedite Expo.
