C.R. England, a Salt Lake City-based trucking company, has been named the FAC International Carrier of the Year.

FAC is a food logistics company that serves customers in Canada, the United States and Mexico.

"The FAC International Carrier of the Year award is a notable distinction," said Dave Akers, president of C.R. England's Mexico division. "C.R. England Mexico is committed to creating a seamless transportation process for our cross border into and out of Mexico."

The award honors a carrier based on service, flexibility and load acceptance.

During FAC's latest fiscal year, C.R. England moved more than 3,000 loads for the company.

"C.R. England's commitment to excellence in their service to and from Mexico is exceptional," said David Sides, director of carrier development at FAC. "It is this level of commitment and service that sets C.R. England apart."
