Irving, TX - Iesha Hawkins has been named July Driver of the Month for National Carriers,
Inc. She has not had a service failure or a safety issue. Hawkins now holds the distinction as the
youngest female to be named driver of the month in National Carriers? 49 year history. The 34
year old Hawkins drives a company truck delivering refrigerated freight throughout the
continental United States.
When notified, Hawkins was surprised and grateful. She explained, ?There has never been a time
that I did not feel I could come in and talk to anyone in the office about anything. I have never
worked at a company where the office personnel was accessible. It makes me feel that everyone
is there for you.?
Director of NCI Refrigerated division, Lex Mendenhall stated, ?Iesha Hawkins and Kenneth Covington
exudes positivity with their appearance, attitude and job performance. Each is a safety conscientious
driver who puts our customers first. They are an excellent example of young, professional drivers who
lead by example and National Carriers is fortunate to have both on our team.?
Kenneth Covington has been named August Driver of the Month for National Carriers, Inc.
Covington joined the NCI truck leasing program in August of 2009 and continues to work as an
independent owner operator. He resides in Tennessee and transports freight throughout the lower
48 states.
?Being an owner operator at NCI has been an exciting journey of my life. I'm proud to be a part
of the NCI family. And when I say family I mean that because they treat their drivers as such. I
came to NCI to be a part of the lease purchase program. After doing my research NCI had the
best lease purchase program available for me. Anytime I've had an issue NCI has been right
there for me. And because of this and the honesty of the company I choose to stay,? Covington
explained.
