Bulkmatic was the top carrier in the 25 million to 100 million mile travel category.
Bulkmatic said it’s the first dry bulk carrier to receive the American Trucking Associations’ highest safety honor, the President’s Trophy.
The Indiana-based bulk trucking and rail logistics provider ranked as the top carrier in the 25 million to 100 million mile travel category.
“We’re incredibly proud to receive this recognition, as safety is at the heart of everything we do at Bulkmatic,” said Brian Daugherty, president, Bulkmatic.
“This award reflects the hard work and passion of every employee, especially our drivers and safety team members.”
The ATA awards the President’s Trophy annually to only the top motor carrier in each of three categories based on miles traveled.
Each demonstrates superior safety performance across key areas such as driver qualifications, safety management, vehicle maintenance, and accident records.
The selection process involves a panel of industry leaders, law enforcement, and Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration officials.
