As you sit down with your families to celebrate the holidays this year, please take a moment to be grateful for the men and women out in the road making it all possible. We are thankful for our crews that work around the clock every day to keep the milk mooving! From our family to yours, have a Happy and Safe Thanksgiving!

As has been tradition, the last few years, we are serving Thanksgiving lunch and dinner for all employees who are able to join. 🦃🍽

Fridays we shut down in the afternoon to clean shop. We take as much pride in our facility as we do in our equipment!

Good Morning from Garden City!

09/12/2022

We’d like to take an opportunity to thank our drivers for everything you do all year round. Last week Garden City’s plant broke down and through every one of your efforts we managed to keep every drop of milk out of the ground. Many of you worked longer hours or extra days to ensure that our dairy farms were taken care of and for that we can’t thank you enough!

In honor of truck driver appreciation week we will be handing out gifts all this week at both Colwich and Garden City and Hampel Oil will be cooking up BBQ at our Garden City location on Wednesday. Be sure to stop through and grab a bite to eat!
