The list of nominees for next week’s Truck and Fleet Awards 2023 has been released after thousand of votes were cast in the products and distributors awards.
Close to 10,000 votes were received by the time voting was closed on the 14th January, with several of the shortlisted companies coming from across the GCC.
The nominees for the prestigious Fleet of the Year Award, which was assessed by a team of industry expert judges, are also now ready to be named.
A special award for Outstanding Contribution to Transportation will also be handed to its recipient on the night.
“I am delighted to be able to share the nominees after weeks of planning for these awards. This was the second year for the vote and it has easily surpassed our expectations,” said head of content Stephen White. “There is a lot of hard work that goes on behind the scene when holding a vote like this, but it is genuinely excited to see the buzz this creates. Thank you to everyone that has taken the time to take part, including the insight from our judging panel.”
