4. Christie Tilton, based at Procter & Gamble in Eaton, Ohio

5. Brian Troutman, based at John Deere in Wayland, Iowa

Troutman reflected on the award, attributing his success to values passed down by his father. “No matter the company name on the truck, treat it like it’s your own. Pride in maintaining your vehicle and satisfying customers is what makes a good driver,” he said.

Since 2009, CPC Logistics has led the industry with 114 drivers named National Driver All-Stars, more than any other company. “It’s an honor to be part of a company like CPC, where everyone genuinely cares about their work and customers,” said Cruz.

In addition to these accolades, CPC’s commitment to safety is reflected in its impressive statistics: 13 drivers inducted into the NPTC Driver Hall of Fame and over 155 drivers with over 1 million accident-free miles.

“Safety is paramount,” Tilton added. “As a trainer, I emphasize the importance of doing things safely from day one, aligning with the customer’s vision for the fleet.”
