Kenco is proud to share that the company has been named a recipient of Unilever’s 2025 Excellence in Safety Award, recognizing outstanding safety performance in Unilever’s logistics network. This honor was presented at the Unilever Logistics Summit and reflects Kenco’s unwavering commitment to protecting the well‑being of associates and partners every day.
The award specifically recognizes the performance of Kenco’s Wilmer, Texas distribution center, which achieved more than 1,700 consecutive days accident‑free and an exceptional multi‑year safety record. This level of performance is rare in the logistics industry and demonstrates what’s possible when safety is embedded into daily operations, not as a requirement, but as a shared responsibility.
Unilever highlighted that what truly distinguishes Kenco’s approach is its strong safety culture. Rather than relying on systems and controls alone, safety is driven by people who genuinely care for one another and consistently look out for their teammates. This people‑first mindset has become the foundation of long‑term, sustainable safety performance and a model for continuous improvement.
This recognition reinforces Kenco’s belief that operational excellence starts with safety and that strong partnerships are built on shared values. Kenco is honored by Unilever’s recognition and incredibly proud of the Wilmer team for setting a high standard for the industry and for each other.
