"Zenith American Solutions has been the third-party administrators to the UFCW National Pension Fund as well as the UFCW Variable Annuity Pension Fund for many years. The staff at Zenith has worked hard to make sure that our members receive the benefits that they have earned and receive them in a timely fashion. Zenith works side by side with UFCW to make sure our members receive the highest quality service and attention to make the pension process as simple as possible. "

— Timothy M. Melia, President of UFCW Local 328 & Trustee on the National Pension Fund and UFCW Industry – Variable Annuity Pension Fund
“I have been thoroughly satisfied with the professionalism and thoroughness of Zenith’s team. But if I am to be completely honest, it is the quality and character of the individuals involved in our funds that make all the difference. We have experienced, and technically proficient people assigned to our plans which help us as fiduciaries meet our required standards of care and performance. What really allows me to sleep at night is knowing that the people we are working with at Zenith have the highest regard for our interests and that they have the moral character and integrity to do what is right for our fund and for our beneficiaries, no matter what. These are qualities that you simply cannot put a price tag on.”

— Lance Wilhelm, Co-Chair/Trustee on the Hawaii Annuity and Hawaii Industry Stabilization Trust Funds.
"My first trust fund meeting was a month before the stock market collapse in 2008. Since then, we’ve navigated the Pension Protection Act, Affordable Care Act, and an accelerated transition to Zenith in 2016 when our original TPA went bankrupt and locked the doors. In my experience, Zenith American Solutions has exceeded all expectations I’ve had as a Trustee. From the expedited transition to a global pandemic, Zenith didn’t miss a beat ensuring all of our retirees and participants never missed a benefit. As Trustee, Zenith delivers plan benefits to our beneficiaries while protecting us and ensuring compliance with our fiduciary obligations. From best-in-class technology, information security, plan implementation and documentation, regulatory compliance, and client interaction, I trust Zenith to do what is right for the participants, the funds, and plan trustees."

— Kevin Albanese, Employer Trustee, Operating Engineers Local 3
"Zenith came on board very knowledgeable, and it was easy to address issues because they already did their homework and did not need to be educated. This helped tremendously in addressing problems as we could move straight to developing and then executing solutions."

— Randy Curry, President, IBEW 191
"Zenith has only been fully functioning as our Administrator since April 1st of 2021 and already so many of our Participants have felt the added benefits and technologies that they have brought to our table. We are very much looking forward to this working relationship and what the added benefit of such a competent and caring administrator will bring to the table for our Local."

— Craig Jones, Business Manager, IBEW 191

The ease of access through the portals is a significant advantage. Their level of technological advancement and implementation is impressive, and once I got the hang of the sysem, the programs worked seamlessly for me.”

— Rodrick Schmidt, Business Representative, BAC Local 1 Minnesota
