Mark Powney, Managing Director, Business News Wales commented:

“It’s great to support the transport awards which will be a great showcase for the transport industry in Wales. The announcement also coincides with the launch of our own news expansion in this sector. The transport industry is developing considerably in Wales and our partnership with the awards further help will champion those organisations that are making an impact within the industry. Showcasing our successful industry leaders demonstrates confidence and growth and sends a message to the international community that Wales is open for business”.

Gavin Edwards, Managing Director, Caldicot Group says:

“We are very proud to be sponsoring the inaugural Wales Transport Awards. Working within the sector supporting companies with their vehicle recovery needs, we know first-hand the tremendous contributions they make that are pivotal to the success of so many other businesses. We are looking forward to recognising all of their efforts at the awards in November.”

The awards are simple to enter and the company's main base must reside within Wales and should have been trading for a minimum of 12 months since January 2017. Once the initial applications have been received, shortlisted entrants from each category will be invited for a short interview with our judges.

Denise Lovering, Head Judge and Former Chair of the Welsh Freight Council, says:

“I am delighted to be asked to be Head Judge for the Wales Transport Awards. Having worked in transport for over 25 years, it is clear to me that this sector, which contributes so much to the economy of Wales, is often overlooked and the work done by logistics as a whole, seriously under rated. It will be good to recognise their achievements and celebrate with the transport sector in Wales”.

If you are a business that strives to be the best and falls within our categories then join us in honouring the people who make a difference to Wales' transport industry.
