In the fight to break hunger, food banks play a key role by securing billions of pounds of food each year and distributing it to millions of people in need. Unfortunately, the food insecurity dilemma has been worsened by COVID-19 this year, so the need to provide these families with relief has never been more pressing.

Each year, The Shippers Group holds its annual food drive to help provide much needed food to our local communities. Our wonderful and gracious associates went above and beyond this year and donated several hundred pounds of non-perishable items to their local food banks, with some sites even filling their car to the brim with donations!

While COVID-19 brought many uncertainties to our world and supply chain this year, The Shippers Group persevered through our hardest challenge yet-to-date and experienced growth throughout the challenging circumstances. In 2020 alone, The Shippers Group was awarded dozens of new contracts from both new customers and several existing customers looking to expand with us. Within this number were three new distribution centers that The Shippers Group opened. President Rob Doyle stated, “Our ability to manage these high volumes is credited to the fact that we have really zeroed in on sustainable and robust start-up processes.” He continued on to say, “Organic growth is one of the cornerstones for our continued profitable growth and two of our three start-ups during the pandemic have been from existing customers, which aligns with our strategic plan and allows us to showcase our operations prowess in uncertain times.”

The Shippers Group Associates participated in No-Shave November this year to bring awareness to Men’s Health during the month of November.

Who helps handle the logistics process, troubleshoots questions, communicates with our customers, and ensures everything goes smoothly? The Dream Team!

Every year The Shippers Group dedicates a week to our Customer Service Team to show our appreciation for their hard work, as they play an integral role in the long-term success of our company. The theme for this year’s celebration was “Dream Team” because despite working through a global pandemic and altered work conditions, our Dream Teams continued to provide the highest level of service for our customers.

The Shippers Group is proud to announce the recent promotion of JT Schaffer to General Manager at two of our facilities in Mesquite and Grand Prairie, TX.
