SOUTH PLAINFIELD, NJ – JUNE 6, 2023 – Bettaway Beverage Distributors, a leading provider of time-definite local and regional trucking services supporting the beverage industry, has been named a 2023 Carrier of the Year by C.H. Robinson.
C. H. Robinson is one of the nation’s largest logistics and transportation firms, with $30 billion in freight under management and 20 million shipments annually. The company’s multimodal transportation management platform and expertise delivers cost-effective solutions for some 100,000 shipping customers.
Bettaway was one of 23 trucking firms to be honored this year, out of the 96,000 contract carriers in C.H. Robinson’s network, noted John Vaccaro, president of Bettaway. “There is nothing more rewarding than a customer acknowledging a job well done,” said Vaccaro. “We are honored to be recognized as a strategic partner and high-performing carrier by one of the nation’s most respected freight service providers.”

We look forward to continuing our journey together into the future, with a focus on a relentless pursuit of excellence in the solutions we provide to customers.”
Awards were given by carrier service type and size.
