You've Got To Have Heart |
They got a lot of women at work at Atlanta Customs Brokers just off the main runways at Hartsfield Jackson International Airport. What you may not know that they also have a hell of a lot of heart. In fact Atlanta Customs Brokers can be thought of as a company that is a pillar of the community. You see for the past dozen plus years, all the way back to when the late Harold Hagans was still the boss of the place, Atlanta Customs Brokers has thrown open its doors to the public, bidding all welcome just before Thanksgiving for a deep fried in peanut oil old fashioned turkey dinner with all the trimmings. But alas the COVID demon has wheedled its way into cancelling the community turkey dinner now for the past two years. The good news is that from all signs, including mood and attitude, it looks like 2022 will be the year to get back to this wonderfully sublime bit of Southern hospitality (fingers crossed). We spoke to Jeff Smith, the lone male in the above picture (what are the odds of that?) who said, “everybody hopes next November Atlanta Customs Brokers will host the biggest ATL Cargo turkey fry ever. “We miss it too. “Our open house has become very much a part of our lives, a tradition here for all of us at Thanksgiving. “Elsewhere on the business front,” Jeff said, “we are holding our own. “At times we have had to scramble and take delays connected with supply & demand. But no doubt no different than everyone is currently experiencing,” Jeff noted. “Yes, there are a lot of people out there and we are here to help them,” Jeff Smith said. |
