Logistics companies nationwide are celebrating today after being shortlisted for Logistics UK’s prestigious Logistics Awards 2023. Logistics UK’s Board – consisting of representatives from some of the country’s most influential logistics businesses – will now complete the final round of independent judging before winners are announced at the celebratory event, which will take place at the Park Plaza Westminster Bridge on the evening of Thursday 7 December 2023.
Highlighting the achievements of companies and individuals that have made a significant contribution to the logistics and supply industry in the past 12 months, the awards event – sponsored by supply chain and logistics specialists, Bis Henderson Group – will include a glittering champagne reception and three course meal, with entertainment to be provided by award winning stand-up comedian Milton Jones.
Our industry has seen off a number of key challenges in the past year to continue to deliver for customers and the work of our dedicated sector is reflected in this year’s awards shortlist. Narrowing down the entries from the high-quality submissions has been incredibly difficult, and I don’t envy those selecting the final winners. I would like personally to thank all those who entered and congratulate all our finalists. We are set for a thrilling night of celebration in December.
