This year has seen a record number of entries submitted in all categories and the quality of the submissions underlines the professionalism that runs through the modern logistics industry. I would like to thank all those companies and individuals that have taken the time to enter and, of course, express my gratitude to each of our individual Award sponsors as well as the event’s main sponsor, Savills.”

He added: “2019 marks the 75th Anniversary of UKWA’s launch and this year’s UKWA Annual Lunch and Awards promises to be a particularly memorable day.
