Frank Sevilla

Frank considers himself “one of the lucky guys” when at just 22 years old he became a Teamster and was one of the first drivers in California to work under the newly signed National Master Freight agreement. He quickly became an active union member and Shop Steward, and at 32 years old joined Local 952 as an Organizer and Business Agent. Frank retired in 2016 then rejoined the staff in 2020 under the new leadership of Secretary-Treasurer Eric Jimenez.

Over his four decades as a Teamster, Sevilla’s impressive resume includes serving as a Shop Steward; a convention delegate; chairing numerous panels in both dairy and soft drink; serving as Chairman of the Southern California Soft Drink Industry leading the contract negotiations for employers and the locals; being a member of the IBT National Soft Drink Policy Committee; a Trustee on the Southern California Dairy Trust Fund and the Southern California Soft Drink Trust Fund for Health and Welfare; and a Trustee and Chairman for the Teamsters Labor Alliance Health and Welfare Trust Fund.
