To our Trucking Companies and Drivers,
On behalf of PCA, our 15,500 employees and, most importantly, our customers, we want to acknowledge and personally thank all the trucking companies and truck drivers out running hard during these unprecedented times. Your efforts are keeping crucial supply chains fluid when consumers need you the most.
Like packaging and paper, trucking is an essential business to the well-being of our nation’s physical and economic health. Truck drivers have risen to the challenge of delivering important commodities throughout the nation such as corrugated containers for foods, beverages, medical supplies, pharmaceuticals, industrials and e-commerce.
At PCA, we continue to operate with the health and well-being of our employees and vendors first and foremost. We are ensuring appropriate hygiene and cleaning at all facilities and are following the standards of the Centers for Disease Control. Employees must wash hands frequently and maintain social distancing as required. Our employees are being called upon to continue to support the needs of the business in the most prudent manner possible and have demonstrated their commitment to others’ health and safety by running the business with the good of the country in mind.
Our customers continue to have high expectations during this time and, with your help, we are delivering on those commitments.
On behalf of PCA, may we extend a most heartfelt thank you for your admirable service.
Mark Kowlzan
