Centerline Drivers recognized as CPFD’s 2022 Vendor Appreciation Award winner

Centerline Drivers is honored to announce that we have been recognized by Coastal Pacific Food Distribution (CPFD) as their Vendor Appreciation Award winner for 2022.

CPFD, a leading military distributor of food and related products around the world – has been working with Centerline Drivers since 2008, and together ensure that this team gets it done! From giving detailed attention weekly visits 2-3 times per week, yard walks, talking to drivers to ensure retention and recommending drivers, to hiring selective drivers to deliver to military bases, runs are covered.

Centerline Major Account Manager, Robert Perez, recognizes his team and says, “together we work really hard throughout the year. This team including weekends no matter what time are always ready to support even on their days off. We insert ourselves in the operation as if it was our own and help in any way possible.”

Staying connected not just on the road, Centerline Drivers and CPFD have assembled multiple events together. The team hosts monthly driver lunches, driver appreciation picnics, drive-thru holiday events, and conducts quarterly safety meetings amongst other events throughout the year. The Centerline and CPFD team also partnered together in 2021 to host a post-holiday event for their drivers to celebrate.
 

Thank you to our drivers for going the extra mile! And a very special thank you to: Robert Perez, John Trahan, Jeanine Suarez, Regina Frank, and Daniel Leon.

We graciously accept this award and look forward to continuing building our partnership with the Coastal Pacific Food Distribution team in the years ahead!
