Myron P. "Mike" Shevell, chairman of the Shevell Group of transportation companies, recently addressed the National Shippers Strategic Transportation Council (NASSTRAC) annual conference in Orlando, FL. Shevell spoke about providing outstanding service based on the criteria of customer service, operational excellence, pricing, business relationship and leadership/technology.

NASSTRAC named the Shevell Group's less-than-truckload (LTL) carrier, NEMF, its 2007 Carrier of the Year in the Northeast region. The award is determined by a survey of shippers who use various companies' services. Shevell and company CEO and president Michael S. Bare accepted the award on behalf of NEMF.

Based in Elizabeth, NJ, family-owned LTL carrier NEMF (www.nemf.com) serves its customers from terminals throughout the Northeast and Midwest, as well as Florida, Puerto Rico and Canada. It is the largest LTL carrier in the Northeast region. NEMF is a member of The Shevell Group of Companies (www.ShevellGroup.com), which also includes Carrier Industries (third-party logistics, dedicated fleet, warehousing), Eastern Freight Ways (asset-based truckload carrier), Apex Logistics (brokerage, nationwide truckload) and NEMF World Transport (non-vessel operating common carrier).
