Covenant Transport was recently awarded Wal-Mart’s “Strength Through Partnership Carrier of the Year” distinction during a ceremony at Covenant’s Chattanooga campus.
Wal-Mart transportation officials said Covenant has “consistently provided Wal-Mart with exceptional service, maintained excellent safety standards and is a foremost leader in the transportation industry” in a news release.
Covenant officials said it was an honor to be singled out by Wal-Mart, which uses trucking companies all over the country to ship freight across 700 million miles of road annually.
“This honor is indicative of the true partnership between our two companies that will, hopefully, continue long into the future,” said Sam Hough, COO at Covenant.
