Thankful for C.R. England’s Partnerships: A 2025 Retrospective
As is customary near the end of the year, reflection has a place in thinking about the big moments that made up the last 365 days of the year. One can tend to think about the massive wins, the challenging obstacles, disappointing losses, and everything else in between.
No matter what happens in the course of a year, there needs to be a space to reflect on relationships and partnerships. Integral to personal life, partnerships and relationships have immense value in business as well. In the transportation and logistics world, you’re only as good as your relationship with your customer and consumer — regardless of service.
Prior to the end of 2025, we’re taking a small look back at our partnerships that mattered most this year.
Community Driven: ONE Partnership to End Childhood Hunger
In a sticker that is visible on almost every C.R. England truck/trailer, our “One” campaign has been dialed in to eliminate childhood hunger since 2018. At C.R. England, One Load Feeds One Child. For each delivery completed by C.R. England, one meal is donated to a hungry child through distribution to food banks across the nation.
Our strategic partnerships with foodbanks across the country matter. Our drivers are able to choose which foodbank they’d like a meal donated to after each successful load delivery. Earlier this year, we surpassed a milestone of 13 Million meals donated to food-insecure kids.
C.R. England President, Josh England, shared his thoughts, “This milestone is far more than a number. It’s a powerful testament to our core value of being Community Driven and to the heart and character of every individual at C.R. England. Each of those 13 million meals represents a child nourished, a family supported, and a future made a little brighter.”
Customer Partnerships: Defining Consumer Success
At C.R. England, we pride ourselves on the ability to Deliver Excellence, Safe & On-Time, Every Time. However, without strong customer ties, a business is simply unable to do business. We’re grateful for the relationships and strong partnerships we have with so many different organizations.
Earlier this year, C.R. England was awarded Safety Dedicated Carrier Provider of the Year and Multi-Modal Food Provider of the Year by Target, the CMG Unsung Hero Award from Hershey, and recognized as a Dedicated Carrier of the Year by PetSmart. We’ve also slotted recent award wins from Newsweek, such as “Greatest Workplaces for Women,” “Greatest Workplaces for Diversity,” and “Best Workplaces in America” in 2023, and one of “America’s Most Admired Workplaces” in 2025.
Being partnered with such great corporations and customers helps us continue to Deliver Excellence — especially when award-winning service is on the table.
