Walmart Transportation is honoring more than a dozen trucking and transportation partners as Carriers of the Year.
Each year, the retailer names the best of the best out of more than 400 third party carriers servicing the company.
Additionally, Walmart recognizes an individual as Transportation Carrier Representative of the year.
“When Walmart chooses a carrier partnership, we look for companies who provide outstanding service, effective communication, and for a company that will exemplify Walmart’s mission to ‘Save people money so they can live better,’” says Kevin X. Jones, Vice President of Walmart Inbound Transportation.
“Walmart is fortunate to have worked with many companies that have accomplished this task.”
Walmart awards the designation each year to companies who provide support to the retailer’s Walmart Stores, Sam’s Club’s and distribution facilities located throughout the continental United States.
