The dairy supply chain depends on trucking and truck drivers. Celebrate National Truck Driver Appreciation Week with us and thank truckers across the country for the critical work they do! #NTDAW23?

Did You Know? Our milk haulers drive over 7 million miles a year, transporting fresh milk from our farms to local processing plants. They are truly a valuable part of the supply chain!

This week, we're steering our gratitude towards the heroes of the highway - our truck drivers! Every day, they're moving our milk and ensuring fresh dairy products make it to your tables. #NTDAW24
