Penske Celebrates Two Driver Appreciation Weeks in September
In September, Penske will recognize the tremendous contributions of our professional truck drivers through National Trucking Week, celebrated in Canada Sept. 7-13, and National Truck Driver Appreciation Week, observed in the U.S. Sept. 14-20.
More than 10,000 drivers support our dedicated contract carriage, distribution center management and Epes Transport System (truckload services) teams.
Their impact is felt far beyond our roadways and loading docks. As critical players in our global supply chains, these drivers are responsible for most of the products we rely on daily—from vehicle components to groceries and crucial supplies.
“Your ability to provide timely, safe and reliable logistics services to our customers does not go unnoticed,” says Pete Bayer, senior vice president of operations. “We can count on you to deliver the excellent performance that accelerates our customer supply chains each and every day.”
Watch the full video message from Bayer; Mike Medeiros, executive vice president of operations; and Penske Logistics President Jeff Jackson below.
