This year’s edition of the Australian Freight Industry Awards has gained the support of major insurance names Gallagher and NTI Ltd as award sponsors.

The 2020 event, which is backed by TWUSUPER and Viva Energy Australia, teamed up with major insurance broker Gallagher for the Best Practice Safety Award, while transport and logistics insurance specialist NTI is behind the Sustainable Environment Award.

Other categories include the Female Leadership Award, Investment in People Award, Application of Technology Award, Young Achiever Award, and Personality of the Year Award.

The annual gathering, which this time around will take place virtually and will be live-streamed on September 20, recognises the achievements of Australian freight and logistics operators and their outstanding employees.

“As longstanding supporters of the transport logistics industry, we are proud to partner with the 2020 Australian Freight Industry Awards as sponsor of the Best Practice Safety Award,” said Gallagher Australia on LinkedIn.

“Nominations are now open and we encourage businesses to get involved.”
