EMO Trans Tradition Matters Moving Forward |
EMO Trans Global Logistics is known and respected worldwide for its grand tradition of growing and maintaining a family business. But this year of 2025 is special as EMO celebrates 60 years since the company was founded in Stuttgart, Germany.  In 2025, despite huge changes in six decades EMO Trans has grown and has continued to blossom led by the foundational brilliance and consolidation of the brand by the late Joachim Frigger, and the legions of dedicated employees who proudly serve the company around the world.In an often here today, gone tomorrow transportation business, EMO Trans is outstanding for continued growth and outlook built on a solid philosophy of family values. Most recently for the past three years since Jo passed, Marco Rohrer, has served at the helm of EMO Trans. The Frigger family is also very much in the mix, as Karin Frigger picked up the reins and serves as EMO Chairwoman plus son, Sven and daughter, Jenni are also featured along with a very talented group of dedicated logistician professionals who serve the total transportation company. In this most unique enterprise in freight forwarding and logistics, certain touchstones of tradition— taking care of each other and honoring the values of superior customer service for generations of shippers, from USA, Europe, China, India and elsewhere are hallmarks of the EMO brand. Speaking of tradition and honoring its beginnings as a Germany-founded company, above from Wednesday May 21st is a picture of EMO Logisticians celebrating what is now a much-anticipated event held at The Tribeca Roof in Manhattan overlooking the World Trade Center, The Hudson River and New Jersey for the 20th annual gathering of a once-a-year treat in New York City at The German American Chamber of Commerce White Asparagus Gala Dinner, starring the air cargo-delivered “royal vegetable” Spargel (white asparagus) fresh from the fields of Bavaria. Hundreds gathered in this grand Tribeca Roof venue offering great food and a 360° degree view of the greatest city in the world for an evening of networking and fun. “It is always a pleasure and an honor to bring these cases of white asparagus to New York,” said Karin Frigger Chairwoman of EMO Trans. “The vegetable, while very popular from April until early June in Germany, is a rarity in USA and is not grown here,” Mrs. Frigger said. “Some attempts have been made to produce the asparagus in Latin America, but the best big white asparagus with its particular texture and sweetness, is grown in Germany where it has heralded springtime for centuries,” she added. “Spargel 2025 style is also a moveable feast that air cargo can deliver like no other mode of transport,” Karin Frigger said. “Working closely with Lufthansa Cargo, it’s strictly hands-on all the way,” said Mrs. Frigger, who added: “The 200 kg are transported in coolers from the fields to the airport. “The whole procedure lasts one and a half days, including customs and other authorities, as the vegetable passes through the security microscope. “But the payoff is well worth it, as a grand tradition is maintained and enhanced by EMO Trans’ ability to handle all manner of shipment, end to end,” she concluded.
As air cargo gets ready to meet in Munich at Air Cargo Europe, EMO Trans at Stand number A1.431/532 (above) looks forward to meeting and greeting the attendees. In Germany, April to June is Spargel season as roadside stands, farmers’ markets, and grocery stores all carry ample supplies of the “royal vegetable,” and many restaurants have special spargel menus which feature asparagus as the star ingredient. When you think about it a bit . . .kind of nice and definitely something else to do as we take a pause in the daily business combat to lean back and celebrate life as we enjoy a unique vegetable.
