IMG announced two new member companies to the invitation-only network, Cardinal Transportation and Eagle Christian Tours, according to the company's news release.
“These two companies are outstanding additions to IMG," said Bronwyn Wilson, IMG president. "They share the core values of IMG with their focus on safety, training, and customer service excellence. We are delighted to welcome them both and know that each company brings great qualities to IMG while expanding our customer footprint.”
Cardinal Transportation was founded in 2000 and currently has a fleet of more than 70 vehicles.
It was in 2012 that Eagle Christian Tours (ECT) was founded by Brett Roes with a single coach and today operates 37 vehicles from their facility in Rome, Georgia.
“Over the years we’ve befriended several business owners from all over the United States who operate exceptional motorcoach companies," Roes said. "As time went on it seemed that the people, we most wanted to emulate had one thing in common: they were all IMG members. It is truly an honor to even be considered for membership and we are deeply grateful for the invitation to join the IMG family.”
