Hello FirstFleet Family,

 

Today we ring in a new year and with that new year a new round of opportunities and possibilities for the coming year. Often with a new year we are reflective of the year we are leaving behind. As I think about the year 2022 there are many things which stand out as things I am grateful for. I am very proud of the collective efforts the FirstFleet Team has invested each and every day. FirstFleet is a collection of over 3,500 transportation professionals located in 120+ cities operating over 3K tractors and delivering somewhere around 20K freight movements a week. We haul groceries, boxes, paper products, bread and other essential items that American families depend upon for their very lives. I am thankful to be associated with this very hard working and dedicated group I have called my work family for 23 years.

 

To each of our drivers, dispatchers, mechanics and other organization leaders I say a heartfelt thank you. Thank you for taking the Core Values to heart, and seeking to live them out every day. We are not perfect, but we are a group of people who all want to do our very best each and every day. This is increasingly a rare thing to be associated with and one I do not take for granted. Wherever you find yourself today I hope that you too can take a moment to think back on the year and reflect on the good that has occurred and where we can go together in the year ahead.

 

As an added bonus we have a year-end round up podcast that features some of our organization leaders talking the year in review. Please use the link below to listen or subscribe to our podcast. This episode includes reflections from Daniel Piper, Robb Getts, Alan Vendur, David Beeny, Mark McKnight and Austin Henderson. We hope this message will be an encouragement to you as we transition from 2022 to 2023!
