Executive Vice President of Antilles Freight,
Joseph Rhoden, received the Award on behalf of his company. Commenting on those
aspects of his company’s performance which he felt was responsible for its
regional success, he referred to “meticulous operations” which he said ensured
that “personalized care and service” were offered at both the receiving
terminals in the U.S. and off-dock facilities in foreign destinations.
“This attention to every detail helps to
eliminate pilferage, cargo damage and other such potential headaches to our
customers,” Mr. Rhoden said.
Mr. Rhoden, well known in the corridors of the CSA,
attended the recent 36th Annual General Meeting, Conference and Exhibition in
Panama City.
