San Diego, CA – August 27, 2025
Hyundai Translead, a manufacturer of dry and refrigerated van trailers, proudly continues its partnership with the Jacobs & Cushman San Diego Food Bank through the donation of a 53-foot refrigerated trailer. This contribution will enhance the Food Bank’s ability to distribute fresh and perishable food items to families and communities in need across San Diego County.
“We are incredibly grateful to Hyundai Translead for their generous donation of a 53-foot refrigerated trailer which will enhance our ability to deliver fresh produce and perishable food to communities in need across San Diego County,” said Casey Castillo, CEO of the Jacobs & Cushman San Diego Food Bank. “Their support helps us ensure that nutritious, chilled food reaches families who need it most, and we are proud to partner with such a community-minded organization.”
To commemorate this meaningful occasion, Hyundai Translead hosted the San Diego Food Bank team for a guided tour of its headquarters, followed by a formal trailer donation ceremony. The trailer will be used to transport perishable goods from the Food Bank’s Miramar warehouse to distribution sites throughout the region.
“We are honored to support the San Diego Food Bank in their vital work to fight hunger and uplift our community,” said Sean Kenney, CEO of Hyundai Translead. “We believe in building strong connections, not just through transportation, but through meaningful relationships that help strengthen and sustain the communities we serve.”
This donation is part of Hyundai Translead’s continuous commitment to community engagement and sustainable impact. The company continues to invest in solutions that go beyond transportation—solutions that help keep people and communities moving forward.
