We recently honored the Top 20 diesel and body shop technicians with our President's Club Awards. The recipients achieved the top performance metrics from our nearly 200 technicians across Palmer Trucks. The President's Club Awards are an annual tradition in which these talented and dedicated team members are brought to Indianapolis for dinner at Ruth's Chris Steak House and receive a special award to proudly display on their toolboxes. This achievement is no easy feat, as Palmer's team is immensely talented, dedicated and hard-working. Stay tuned as we continue to honor more of our outstanding technicians and all they do to keep America's freight rolling! Be sure to congratulate them in the comments!

Palmer Trucks was honored to receive recognition as Partner of the Year by local charity, Community Alliance of the Far Eastside (CAFE Indy), a local community center providing job training, food security, health support, and other excellent services to the community within which we opened our new headquarters and Kenworth of Indianapolis East dealership during 2020. CAFE Indy shares, "Palmer Trucks has been an incredible partner in supporting workforce development and job training efforts on the Far Eastside. Together, we’ve hosted multiple training cohorts, creating pathways to livable wage jobs with full benefits for residents in our community. Their dedication to empowering lives has made a lasting impact, and we are so grateful for their continued partnership. We look forward to building on this success in the years to come as we work together to serve and uplift our community." We're grateful for this partnership, our staff, who mentor and train young apprentices to build skills and lifelong, sustainable careers, and our friendships in the Indianapolis Eastside community. #jobtraining #skillsdevelopment #Indianapolis #Indiana #communitypartnerships #CTE #careerandtechnicaleducation
