Empire Industries Ltd. (TSX-V: EIL) has summarized a number of key activities that occurred in 2014 that were shared throughout the year on its social media accounts on Twitter and Facebook. "2014 was a very active year in a number of respects.  The Company decided to commence a social media program to share some of its more memorable experiences with its four main audiences; investors, attraction enthusiasts, astronomy buffs and hydrovac truck followers. Filing our regulatory documents provides a highly technical view of what the Company does and we wanted to provide some more colour and context through using social media," said Guy Nelson, Executive Chairman and CEO of Empire Industries Ltd. "If you are interested in knowing about these events as they happen, I encourage you to register for a Twitter, Facebook or YouTube account and follow, friend or subscribe to us."
