B&G Supply Co. says it is implementing the largest comprehensive pay and compensation increase in its history this month.
The Albertville, Ala.-based temperature-controlled truckload carrier said every over-the-road and regional company driver will receive a cents-per-mile-bump beginning March 1. After announcing a substantial increase in 2021, the company is raising pay once again and will now be compensating drivers $0.50/mile paid weekly with a quarterly bonus program, giving them the potential to earn $0.55/mile and four extra pay checks a year.
“B&G drivers have been nothing short of remarkable over the last few years through some challenging times in the transportation industry,” said Jimmy Floyd, B&G operations manager. “They’ve stepped up to the plate every time they’ve been asked to help keep stores stocked and food on the shelves across the country.”
B&G also offers well-maintained equipment and top-notch facilities by employing around the clock mechanics, an on-site fill station, truck wash, and more.
“Truck drivers are the backbone of America, and B&G employs top talent when it comes to OTR drivers,” said David Mitchell, B&G co-owner. “This pay increase is not only well-deserved for our hard-working drivers, but necessary to continue hiring and retaining the best talent in today’s competitive driver market.”
