Welcome to the Irish Logistics and Transport Awards

The Irish Logistics & Transport Awards 2012 took place before a packed audience of the top echelon of Ireland’s Logistics & Transport professionals, with Richard Curran of RTÉ's Dragons Den and Deputy Editor of The Sunday Business Post presiding over the glittering awards ceremony.

The awards venue was packed with nearly 350 representatives from all over Ireland present to applaud the 89 finalists across 18 categories as the prestigious trophies were handed out to loud cheers from winners and their guests. Beaten finalists were rewarded with a special parchment to mark their success in reaching the finals.

The awards attracted over 100 entries, with judges commenting on the overall high standards which made choosing the eventual winners all the more difficult. On behalf of our sponsors, congratulations to all our winners and commiserations to those who were not successful this time around.

The night was rounded off by a charity casino, in aid of the DSPCA and the Haven Partnership. A big thank you to all those who donated prizes- Musgraves Ireland, Today FM, The Burlington & CILT.

The list of winners are now available below, and pictures of the night will be available on our Facebook page shortly.
