C.R. ENGLAND WINS TWO PRESTIGIOUS AWARDS FROM LEADING RETAILER

Salt Lake City, Utah --May 6, 2009 – C.R. England, a global transportation
provider, has been recognized as the 2008 Dedicated Grocery Carrier of the
Year and 2008 Grocery Carrier of the Year by Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. This is the
first time Walmart has honored a transportation provider with two awards in one
year.

“These awards are a significant honor for our company and our people,” said
Dan England, chairman of the board of C. R. England. “We’re appreciative of
Walmart for acknowledging our corporate commitment to customer service and
operational excellence and our ability to find solutions to meet their
transportation challenges. We value our partnership and are grateful for this
recognition.”

“Walmart realizes the continued pressure and challenges facing the


transportation industry,” said Ken Braunbach, Walmart’s senior director of
carrier relations in a letter of commendation. C.R. England’s “ability to rise
above these obstacles has won our utmost trust and confidence.”

Walmart has numerous dedicated operations in their grocery network


serviced by all of the top transportation carriers. “By naming C.R. England
Dedicated Grocery Carrier of the Year,
Walmart is recognizing the commitment of England’s operations staff, on-site
management, support staff and professional, dedicated drivers,” said Kirk
Freimuth, senior director of dedicated operations for C.R. England.

The second award C.R. England received was 2008 Grocery Carrier of the
Year. This award speaks to top performance in England’s National, Mexico,
Intermodal and Regional operations and recognizes the dedication,
commitment and support of all C.R. England employees. As a customer since
2005, England has grown with Walmart more each year, with most of that
growth in the past year. As Walmart has expanded its produce centers,
England has supported that growth.
