                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, March 25, 2019

  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Old Dominion Freight Line Inc. for receiving Commerce City's Business 
Appreciation 2018 Business on The Move Award.
   The Business of the Year Award is given to a Commerce City company 
with a pioneering spirit that has shown a history of leadership within 
its industry and the community. Old Dominion Freight Line has 
demonstrated longevity and sustained growth within the community. Old 
Dominion Freight Line is a less-than-truckload (LTL) motor carrier 
providing regional, inter-regional and national LTL service and value-
added logistics services.
   Old Dominion Freight Line built its Commerce City service center in 
1997, expanded in 2016 and then expanded again in 2018. These 
renovations accommodate the tremendous growth in the Colorado 
marketplace, making the service center the most advanced service center 
in the Denver Metro area and enabling the company to expand its 
customer base both locally and globally.
   The facility employs 330 people, 26 of which were hired because of 
service center growth. All of these employees have future growth 
potential within Old Dominion Freight Line. I extend my deepest 
congratulations to Old Dominion Freight Line Inc. for this well-
deserved recognition from Commerce City.
