The ceremony took place at St John’s Hotel in Solihull, West Midlands, and was attended by more than 300 industry professionals from across the UK, Ireland and mainland Europe. Awards were presented across four categories, with the winners nominated and voted for by the members of Courier Exchange and Haulage Exchange in recognition of their major success and best practice in terms of customer service, operational performance and delivery:

Lyall Cresswell, Managing Director of Transport Exchange Group said: “I would like to congratulate the winners of this year’s awards and thank everyone that has contributed to such a superb event. The Transport Awards provide a great opportunity to celebrate individuals and companies that are achieving excellent work and contributing to the success of our freight exchanges. With more than 3,500 members and over 700,000 loads traded annually, we have created a significant community of like-minded operators that are collaborating to fill available space, eliminate wasted capacity and ease the driver shortage issue.”
