The great and the good of the UK’s logistics industry gathered in London last week for the annual British International Freight Awards.
Traditionally held in mid-January, the event is a chance for people in the industry to blow away the post-new year blues.
This year’s guest speaker was broadcast journalist and newsreader Naga Munchetty, who followed on from speeches from BIFA president Peter Bottomley and director general Robert Keen.
The winners of the eight General and Modal categories of the Awards were: Samskip; Panalpina World Transport; Schenker; Unsworth Global Logistics; Allport Cargo Services; DSV Air & Sea; Freightex; and Estuary Logistics.
The winner of the Young Freight Forwarder Award was Jenifer Taylor of Santova Logistics.
BIFA said: “BIFA member Uniserve Group deserves a special mention, having qualified as a finalist in four award categories, while Brunel Shipping & Liner Services secured a finalist position across three categories. Seven BIFA Members qualified as finalists for the first time.”
