Great West Casualty Company Safety Representative Jeff Norling, ARM, CDS presents Sisbro Director of Safety Glenn Meyers the 2020 National Safety Awards Platinum award at Sisbro in Quincy, IL July 28, 2021.

We are excited to share Sisbro was presented a Platinum award by Great West Casualty Company as part of its 2020 National Safety Awards program! 

The National Safety Awards program recognizes motor carriers in similar operations (truckload and less than truckload) with awards based on their year-end preventable crash results. 

Carriers are eligible to receive a Platinum, Gold, Silver, or Participatory award. 

We are proud to have earned the highest honor of a Platinum award for 2020.

This distinction is credited to our Drivers, with the support of our entire team.

The commitment to safety begins during orientation and continues through on-going training. Innovative safety initiatives such as Sisbro Bob Matter Moments create a safety-first culture. This mindset extends far beyond the Driver's seat to include Dispatch, Customer Service, and all our departments.

Great West Casualty Company corporate values state, "The character of our company is demonstrated by the daily actions of our employees and agents." Our team's daily actions prove safety is a top priority. Receiving this award for the 2020 trucking year is especially meaningful. Thank you to Great West Casualty Company, our whole Sisbro team, and our supporters for celebrating this accomplishment with us!

ABOUT SISBRO

Our family trucking heritage goes back to the late 1950s with one truck and a trailer. Sisbro was formed in the 1980s and still reflects our family values: Sisbro, a combination of sister and brother. The business grew and, in 1990, we joined an organization to grow our customer base and take advantage of new technology. We kept the name Sisbro and still maintain our identity as a family business.

Based in Quincy, Illinois, our primary focus is serving customers in a 17 state Midwest region. Expanded coverage is also available upon request. We offer a variety of transportation, trucking, warehouse, and dock services to serve our customers. This includes regular contract trucking services and dedicated driver and equipment operations. Perishables, building materials, general commodities, and animal feed are just some products we transport.

Our fleet has grown with outstanding driver personnel behind the wheel and support staff in our office. This dedicated team is the key to our continued success and will be vital to our growth. Plans include fleet expansion with experienced personnel. This will enable us to continue to provide the high standard of service our customers have come to expect from Sisbro.
