Cheema Freightlines LLC has been recognized as the WHD Northwest 2022 Carrier of the Year by Quaker-Gatorade, a division of Pepsico. 

The award was presented at the quarterly business review meetings held in Phoenix.

Both Cheema’s trucking and logistics divisions hauled nearly 21,000 loads combined for Quaker-Gatorade in the 2022 fiscal year providing 99% on-time service.

“Cheema was easily the best carrier to work with over this last year. Attention to detail and communication are the things that come to my mind. Whenever we need CFAA or CHAO, they are ready!” said Brooke Harris, regional transportation manager.

“To receive this award four times in the last six years from one of our top customers exemplifies our dedication to service and a huge accomplishment for our drivers. We are humbled and thrilled to share this honor with our team,” said Harman Cheema, CEO of Cheema Freightlines. “It has been an absolute privilege to serve Quaker-Gatorade for more than 11 years”
