We bring together powerhouses.

The IFDA National Championship showcases the incredible talent, dedication, and professionalism that drive our industry forward. In 2024, 190 professional truck drivers and 79 warehouse associates stepped up to the challenge, with an impressive 71% competing for the first time. Together, these competitors brought with them more than 2,300 accident-free years, 2,200 years with their current employers, and over 3,300 years of industry experience.

Each competitor participates in rigorous events designed to test their skills and knowledge, and top performers are recognized across a variety of individual and team categories. From Double-Pallet Jack and Reach Truck challenges to 2, 3, and 5-Axle driving competitions, these awards celebrate excellence in every corner of foodservice distribution.
