What We Do Wednesday! Today we are featuring our subsidiary company, Chenega Base & Logistics Services, LLC (CBLS). CBLS currently holds 12 contracts, setting the standard for excellence in logistics and base operations. Our team is made up of trendsetters and trailblazers who are not afraid to take on tough jobs and deliver outstanding results. As General Manager Tim Johnson puts it: "We are not afraid to go out and do the hard work. I set the standard by leading from the front, not the rear. I don’t just sit behind a desk sending emails I’m in the field working alongside my employees. I’ll pick up a broom, a mop, or operate material handling equipment because I won’t ask my team to do anything I wouldn’t do myself. That how I earn the respect and loyalty of CBLS employees." Tim’s journey from a young kid growing up in East Orange ( Little City) NJ, to leading a thriving company is a testament to hard work, dedication, and the power of an amazing team. As we move into 2025, CBLS remains committed to delivering quality, professional work and continuing to set the bar high in our industry. Enjoy this video introducing some of the CBLS team, contact Tim Johnson to discuss how CBLS can support you. #chenega #chenegafamily #whatwedowednesday
