Penske Celebrates Driver Appreciation Weeks in September

During September, Penske will recognize the outstanding contributions of our professional truck drivers through annual driver appreciation week events across North America.


Nearly 10,000 drivers support our dedicated contract carriage, distribution center management and Epes Transport System (truckload services) teams. By delivering safe, professional, on-time and innovative logistics solutions, they accelerate supply chain performance.

Our drivers are responsible for most of the products we rely on daily. As critical players in our global supply chains, their impact is felt far beyond our roadways and loading docks.

“You are on the front lines, representing Penske to our customers, bringing our service promise to life, one day at a time,” says Penske Logistics President Jeff Jackson. “Our customers trust us because they trust you.”

Mike Medeiros, executive vice president of operations, added, “we are honored to have you behind the wheel.”

Drivers, thank you - our supply chain starts with you!

Watch a special thank-you message from Medeiros and Jackson to our professional drivers.
