Truck drivers are being served a hearty thanks for the essential work they do across the country.
A number of drivers were treated to free meals in Kamloops Wednesday, April 15 as a major supplier showed its appreciation.
Tolko Industries paid for $1,500 worth of meals for truck drivers at the CookShack Cravings food truck stop at the Chevron cardlock.
“With the COVID-19 crisis here in Canada, Tolko Industries wants to support our truckers who are a vital asset to us,” said Phil Bean, Heffley Creek division manager. “We don’t have a business without the truckers, plain and simple. If we don’t have our truckers we can’t get our product to market and nor can we operate our business.”
