Winners of Logistics UK van awards 2023 announced

Six businesses and individuals from across the country are celebrating following the announcement of Logistics UK’s Van Awards 2023.

The awards, which were presented during a celebratory lunch at the Hyatt Regency Birmingham on Friday (September 15), recognised the “exceptionally exacting standards” demonstrated by van operators and how they have gone above and beyond for their customers. 

Kevin Green, director at Logistics UK, said: “Van operators can be undervalued or overlooked by industry, but they are invaluable to keep the economy working efficiently – which is something that has become even more obvious since the pandemic and the switch in consumer buying patterns to increased home shopping.

“This is why the van awards are so important for the sector, as we recognise the achievements and dedication shown by operators.

“I would like to thank everyone who entered the awards and congratulate the winners; their recognition is very well deserved.” 

Supported by Logistics UK’s Van Gold Partners – the AA, Brigade Electronics, Lex Autolease, TVL Security and Webfleet – the winners of the Logistics UK Van Awards 2023 are:
