Bennett Family of Companies Launches 50th Anniversary Celebration
The Bennett Family of Companies proudly announces the launch of its 50th Anniversary Celebration at the Truckload Carriers Association Truckload2024 conference today, commemorating half a century of Faith, Family and Freight in the transportation and logistics industry from 1974-2024.
Kicking off the festivities, the company recently hosted its 50th Anniversary Symposium, bringing together leadership, agents and employees to honor this significant milestone. The event showcased the remarkable journey of the Bennett Family of Companies over the past five decades and set the stage for a year-long celebration.
As part of the commemoration, Bennett has unveiled a special edition 50th Anniversary book, chronicling the company’s rich history, achievements and the people who have contributed to its success. This publication serves as a testament to the legacy and enduring spirit of Bennett throughout the years. The company also showcased a 53-foot trailer featuring its history in a custom wrap.
In addition to the Symposium and book launch, Bennett announced plans for a series of celebratory events throughout the year. Highlights include the unveiling of the 50th Anniversary #21 NASCAR Xfinity Series race car driven by Austin Hill, which made its public debut at the Mid-America Trucking Show (MATS), capturing the attention and admiration of attendees.
“Our 50th Anniversary is a testament to the hard work, dedication and unwavering commitment of our drivers, agents and employees. As we celebrate this significant milestone, we reflect on our journey with gratitude and look forward to continuing our legacy of excellence in the years to come.”
