Women In Trucking Association announces Silver Partnership with Suburban Propane

The Women In Trucking Association (WIT) welcomes its newest Silver Level Partner, Suburban Propane, a nationwide distributor of propane, renewable propane, fuel oil, and related products and services, as well as a marketer of natural gas and electricity and investor in low carbon fuel alternatives.

“We’ve made great strides in driving positive change around dialogue and action for women in the transportation industry,” said Ellen Voie, president and CEO of WIT. “The support from a leading company like Suburban Propane further propels our mission forward.”

Founded in 2007, the Women In Trucking Association was established to encourage the employment of women in the trucking industry, promote their accomplishments, and minimize the obstacles they face. Currently, the organization is a resource for nearly 8,000 corporate and individual members located in the United States, Canada, and Mexico, as well as Japan, Australia, Sweden, South Africa, and New Zealand. Recent accomplishments include: releasing the 2022 WIT Index, the official barometer to benchmark and measure the percentage of women who make up critical roles in transportation each year, finding professional female drivers increased to 13.7%; participating in White House and FMCSA roundtables and events; launching its Professional Driver Hub, an online resource to encourage driver success; and more than 1,700 registered attendees at the 2022 Accelerate! Conference and Exhibition.
