Mitsubishi Logisnext Americas donated two motorized Mitsubishi Forklift pallet trucks to the Houston Food Bank (HFB), which distributes food to those in need across southeast Texas.
The donation event, held at the Houston Food Bank warehouse on November 4, featured Mitsubishi Logisnext President Ken Barina and HFB President/CEO Brian Greene. Together, they recognized the importance of this partnership and the critical role both organizations play in supporting hunger relief efforts throughout greater Houston. These new pallet trucks will aid HFB in distributing meals in southeast Texas.
“We are deeply committed to supporting the Houston Food Bank in their mission to combat hunger in our community,” said Barina. “By providing these pallet trucks, we aim to enhance their ability to distribute food more efficiently, ensuring that more families in need receive the help they deserve. It’s an honor to contribute to such a vital cause and the Houston Food Bank in their efforts to make a positive impact in greater Houston.”
Greene added: “Houston Food Bank provides more than 120 million nutritious meals annually to our 18-county coverage area, and all of this food flows in and out of our warehouse, making our equipment the workhorse that makes it possible. This generous donation from Mitsubishi Logisnext Americas is providing additional equipment to better and more efficiently serve our community.”
Earlier in the day, Logisnext employees actively supported Houston Food Bank by sorting food and packaging boxes.
Serving Houston and southeast Texas since 1982, Houston Food Bank’s mission is to provide food through its 1,600 community partners of food pantries, soup kitchens, social service providers and schools.
