The prestigious 2015 Canadian Fleet Maintenance Manager of the Year Award was awarded to Chris Iveson of Challenger Motor Freight on May 6th at the Paradise Banquet Hall & Convention Centre in Concord.

In order to qualify for the award, the nominee must manage a fleet of at least 25 Class 8 vehicles and perform at least 80% of their own maintenance and repairs amongst other requirements.

Chris currently oversees more than 150 staff at 4 maintenance facilities in Ontario, Montreal and British Columbia.
