Fyda Freightliner Columbus Expediters Veteran John Lalonde Participates in EO University Q&A Panel
Columbus, OH… John Lalonde has been working at Fyda Freightliner Columbus, Inc. for 20 years, specializing in refrigerated and dry van Expediters. On April 21, 2016 in Knoxville, John shared his expertise with EO University attendees in order to help them with their expediting businesses.
When expediting became popular in the 1980’s due to the explosion of the just-in-time delivery business model, Fyda Columbus was there leading the way in customizing Expediter trucks made specifically for the expediting business. Today, Fyda Columbus remains committed as the largest dealer of Expediters in the country, with a huge in-stock inventory of new and pre-owned units ready for delivery. Featuring a Freightliner chassis and a dry or refrigerated box, Fyda Columbus Expediters are turnkey ready – fully equipped with premium sleepers for the comfort and convenience of the operators as they travel long distances.
John Lalonde brings 20 years of experience to expediting business owners on a daily basis, from original consultation to after-sale support and services, with a particular expertise in specifying temperature-controlled refrigerated units. His long-term involvement in the expediting industry makes him an ideal participant at EO University. “I enjoy working with customers to help them buy the right vehicle to do the most business. Being a part of EO University gives me a chance to be part of a larger conversation and help more expediting business owners to be more profitable,” said John. “At this event, I’m able to meet with so many more people in the expediting industry than during the course of normal business, and I look forward to being able to show them all that Fyda Columbus offers in the way of our fully-customizable Expediters, in-house financing opportunities, warranty coverage, and services.”
