DAV Texas Large Patriot Employer of the Year Award

DAV's Patriot Employer Awards honor organizations that set the standard for veteran employment. Winners are chosen in small, midsize and large categories. Judges look at veteran recruiting and hiring, retention and career-building, policies toward disabled veterans, and community outreach.

Built by Those Who Served

Peterbilt has built trucks since 1939. From the start, veterans helped build them. Men and women came home from service and found a place on our line. That tradition continues today.

Veterans bring something special to Peterbilt. They know discipline. They know teamwork. They lead under pressure and finish the mission. Those same traits build a quality truck. You see it on the assembly floor, in engineering, and in the office.

We support those who served. Our Veterans Employee Resource Group gives veterans a place to connect and engage. We stand with Wreaths Across America and RecruitMilitary. This year, we were named a 2026 Military Friendly® Employer, recognizing our work in recruiting, developing and advancing veterans.

We are proud to be an American company.

Most of all, we are proud of our people. Veterans and civilians work side by side here. They share one thing in common: a love of country. It shows in every truck that leaves our plant.

To every veteran at Peterbilt: thank you. You served our nation. Now you help build its future.
