WESTERN DAIRY TRANSPORT WATCH THE NEWEST VIDEO HOME ABOUT DRIVER ACADEMY CAREERS NEWS EMPLOYEE CENTER CONTACT PURPOSE-FUELED. COMMUNITY-DRIVEN. WHO WE ARE At Western Dairy Transport (WDT), we believe who we are is just as important as the services our company provides. WDT is the nation’s leading milk and dairy-related logistics company serving customers in 48 states and Mexico, yet at our core, we retain the feel and attitude of a small company. Today, WDT serves the bulk food-grade transportation industry, comprised of dairy farmers and food processors. At WDT, we are purpose-fueled and community-driven, believing that everyone benefits from strong and vibrant communities. Above all, our core purpose is to enrich and grow people, families and communities. WDT HERITAGE Our founder, J.W. “Bill” Honeycutt, Jr., is a 21st century entrepreneur with an 18th century work ethic, driven by strong family values and a commitment to relationships built on a handshake. Western Dairy Transport was founded in 1967 in Cabool, Mo. Bill used 10 milk trucks to provide friendly, reliable bulk-milk delivery service to his customers in the Ozark region of Missouri. WDT has a long history of being a customer-driven, organic-growth company. We are extremely proud of our heritage, rely on it as our compass, and believe the life story of our company has only just begun. Our heritage is yesterday walking side-by-side with today, planning for tomorrow. We are more than the sum of our trucks and trailers. We are purpose-fueled and community-driven.

WDT TODAY Our people are our passion. Today, WDT is the nation’s largest milk and dairy-related logistics company serving customers in 48 states and Mexico with 11 terminal locations to meet the needs of our customers and industry associates. Our charge is to continue building strong communities, servant leaders, and lasting relationships. WDT has secured its place as an industry leader by relying on its most important resource — our team members and leaders. From our drivers to our tanker sanitation technicians and from our payroll staff to our dispatchers, every member of our team is crucial to realizing our vision. Our team deploys innovative in-transit load tracing and delivery monitoring technologies while focusing on forging strong customer and team member relationships as we look to the future. OUR WHY LIVING THE WDT CORE PURPOSE, MISSION & VISION Some may think it out of the ordinary for a traditionally logistics-based company to ask, “Why do we do what we do?” We say, “Thanks for noticing!” Because we want to be above the ordinary! Yes, we have trucks and, yes, our trucks move bulk dairy products and dry freight, but what is most important to us, and what makes WDT a truly great company is our passion for serving people and doing things the right way. By envisioning everything we do through a that’s-the-way-it-should-be lens, the WDT community daily identifies new trendsetting opportunities to serve all those on our path. From our community team members to our industry associates, we believe in investing in people and championing innovative community-based solutions that make sense to our associates. WDT has a proven track record of doing logistics management the right way for the right reasons. That’s what gets us up early and what we start thinking about with our very first cup of coffee each morning. OUR HOW Our ‘how’ starts with the WDT Mission: Our daily mission is to deliver the highest quality service while operating with safety, service, and efficiency. Every step we take is framed by our people. Trucks and trailers are our tools, but it’s our people, our values and our commitment to quality-driven service that has built 50 years of lasting relationships with our customers and communities. The safety of all those on our path starts with the best mechanics in the industry and is delivered by our professional drivers. Delivering quality and efficiency is the daily passion of all our team members. We don’t just say it; we live it. We believe it takes every person on our team walking arm-in-arm to achieve our mission, realize our vision and ensure we are actively living out our core purpose. As a guide to keep our actions between the yellow lines, we have established some operational and cultural markers along our road to serve as guideposts while living out our core purpose, achieving our mission and realizing our vision. We refer to these as the WDT spirit guiding principles. These principles serve to guide us in our decisions as a company and as a community. They permeate our long-range strategic planning and our daily actions. That’s our ‘how’ — always keeping quality safety, service, and efficiency at the forefront of our mission. CONTACT Questions?
