Dallas, TX - (Market Wire) – May 29, 2007. Central
Freight Lines, Inc., a leading LTL carrier and one of the
largest intrastate carriers in Texas, is an award winning company.
Their values, great programs and exceptional benefits prove to be a
strong foundation that has led this company straight to the
top.
After Central Freight Line’s Line-Haul division won the First
Place Award of the Truck Safety Contest for Texas Carriers from
Texas Motor Transportation, the company was entered into the
Corporate Safety Exhibit in competition for the TMTA 2007 Grand
Trophy. CFL was up against seven other strong companies that had
also earned TMTA First Place Safety Awards in different categories.
The Grand Trophy is awarded to the Motor Carrier that has the most
complete and most effective Safety Program in Texas. After the
judging of the eight carriers, TMTA announced Central Freight Lines
has earned this honor.
This prestigious state level recognition has been earned by
CFL three times within the last six years. It has also won
the American Trucking Association’s top National Safety Award
(the President’s Trophy) four times within the past twenty
years. Once a carrier receives this award, the carrier is
automatically ineligible for consideration for the award for a
period of four years.
All the awards from the Texas Motor Transportation Association
including the 2007 Grand Trophy will be presented July 25th in San
Antonio, TX. An awards luncheon will be part of the TMTA Annual
Convention.
