“We firmly believe that innovation is key to keeping up with the way our customers do business,” Jenni noted.

Amelia Island Beautiful From Every View

      Located just off the coast of northeast Florida, Amelia is a 13-mile barrier island that has long been a beloved destination for visitors and residents alike.
      Named for Princess Amelia, daughter of King George II of England, Princess Amelia’s major claim to fame is having the eponymous island named after her.
      Over the past 350 years, eight flags have flown over Amelia Island: French, Spanish, British, Patriot, Green Cross, Mexican, Confederate, and United States.
      EMO Trans conferees undoubtedly will find time to golf and enjoy the local beauty and ease of life in between their hard working, total contact sessions.
The oldest saloon in Florida is in Amelia Island.
      It’s still in its original location and legend has it that during Prohibition, the Palace Saloon was the last bar in the country to close.
      The Palace sold ice cream during the prohibition years (or so it was said…).

A Collaborative Journey

      “We are on an important journey together,” Jenni Frigger-Latham said.
      “Whether employee, partner, or a valued customer, our view is that everyone is important to EMO Trans and vital to our development and growth.
      “Our goal is to support and further develop our transportation resource so that everyone has the opportunity to build success upon success by getting the best out of our global infrastructure.”
