Our Mission and Vision

AEMCA’s mission is to provide the framework for member networking, education, and inter-association relations and to assist the shipping public and regulatory agencies in understanding the many advantages of using flexible, client-oriented carriers offering a variety of expedited trucking services.

The significant role played by AEMCA members can best be illustrated by realizing how weak the air and expedited cargo industry would be if there were no air and expedited truckers to perform the many specialized services in today’s global marketplace.

AEMCA offers members the opportunity to educate, advocate, and promote business development through networking with members and industry groups.
