Eagle Transport Opens New Facility in Charlotte

 

Charlotte, N.C. --- Eagle Transport opened a new facility in Charlotte last week as part of a continued effort to expand its business.

Eagle, one of the most progressive petroleum transport carriers on the east coast, has been expanding over several locations in the east for the past three to four years.

Bill George, recruiting director, is very excited about the new facility. He says “this is the only modern petroleum carrier terminal in the Charlotte market. It is highly visible and state of the art.” The new facility is complete with electronic gates for driver security, new offices for the staff, a new driver break-room, a driver training room and a new, modernized shop.

George adds that “Mark Kinsey, the terminal manager for Charlotte, and his staff do a great job for us. They have really contributed to our growth. This really demonstrates a commitment to the driving force, and customers as well. It goes to show that we are going to be a premier carrier in the marketplace for the long term.” Kinsey added that the new facility “is a great improvement over our old, temporary facility. Our shop and offices are now in the same place, making everything much more convenient.”

A grand opening has been scheduled for Tuesday, May 16, 2006 for this new facility. Customers and vendors will be invited along with all employees and their families. Eagle is also making plans for new facilities in Tampa, Fla. and Roanoke, Va.
