E.D.R. INTERNATIONAL, INC.
CORAL GABLES, FLORIDA

EDR International, Inc. was founded with a goal to provide management services to shipping lines and logistics companies based outside the U.S. that required expertise in developing a U.S. and/or Caribbean/Central America Agency Network for their shipping business. In 1985, the company entered into a joint venture with Southern Steam, Inc. of Mobile, Alabama. EDR International with Mr. Del Riego as managing partner assembled a team based in Miami that had overall responsibility for Florida, The Caribbean and Latin America operations of Southern Steam, Inc. EDR International was also responsible for business development, bringing in new client lines from Latin America. During this time, Mr. Del Riego and his team of EDR International Executives were instrumental in securing $250 million in new client business along with running the most profitable division in the company. Southern Steam, Inc. was sold to Inchcape Shipping of London in 1992 and Mr. Del Riego remained as VP Latin America and Executive Board until departing in 1994 when EDR International secured a contract with The Di Gregorio family of Brazil to develop the family's U.S. shipping line business. Mr. Del Riego was instrumental in growing the business to over $125 million in four years through strategic partnerships and alliances with other global carriers while expanding EDR International management activities and investments into the technology sector.  In 1999 through 2000, the Di Gregorio family was forced to suspend U.S. operations as a result of the loss of the vessel DG Harmony. EDR International focused on management services for various technology companies based in Amsterdam, putting together a U.S. network of Lotus Notes training and programming centers which were sold to E-Factor.biz, the division of a Netherlands-based group in 2004.  The company was also involved with growing and building Active Freight & Logistics, an NVOCC based in Miami, Florida and Pearl River, New York. Active Freight & Logistics, under the direction of an EDR International team of professionals headed by Mr. Del Riego as President, was transformed from a small Miami based NVOCC with revenues under $3 million to a major player in the European export market and as a new entrant in the Asia market grew the company's Asia business to over $20 million annually in three years. In 2008, EDR International finalized and sold its 50% ownership in Active Freight to Active International, Inc. Mr. Del Riego and EDR International remain advisors to Active International as of this date.
