Coach Broker winners from this year’s Transport Broker Awards are announced

The winners from this year’s Transport Broker Awards were presented with their trophies over the weekend at the glitzy awards show held at the St David’s Hotel and Spa in Cardiff Bay.

This year the awards show, which is now in its third year, took on a Las Vegas theme which saw the luxury 5 start hotel transformed for the evening with a mini casino complete with roulette and black jack tables, plus dancing show girls and top name DJs supplied by Kudos Music.

The awards were broken into two different categories for National and Regional Awards. Starting off with the regional awards for Coach Broker, the Agent of the Year for the North East and Scotland was named as Bishopbriggs, while Mearns Travel came in second place. The gong for Agent of the Year for the North West was handed to Belle View with Walkers named in second place.

The winner of Agent of the Year for the Midlands was Executive Thandi, and Plaza were runners up, while the trophy for Agent of the Year for the South West, South East and London was handed to Dhillon of London, with BM Coaches named in second place, and the last of the regional awards for Agent of the Year for Wales and the West Country was awarded to Chapmans, with Cavendish Coaches in second place.

Moving onto the National Awards, the trophy for Best Fleet out of all of the agents working with Coach Broker was presented to BM Coaches. The Best Customer Service award was handed to Dhillon of London notching up their second trophy of the night, while BM Coaches also scooped a second gong after they picked up one of the biggest awards of the night for Coach Broker Agent of the Year.

If you weren’t able to make it to this year’s awards celebration, the pictures from the night will be available to view online this week.

A helicopter hire brokerage system is the latest service to be launched by the growing Transport Broker Group. The news website (http://www.helicopterhire.net/) will join the company’s impressive portfolio of services which includes a specialised wedding car hire website, plus a coach hire and limo hire broker system.

The new venture will offer helicopter hire services all over the UK and will allow customers to compare a range of companies and their rates before making a decision. The same sophisticated brokerage system which is used successfully in the other businesses run by the Transport Broker Group will be adopted for use in helicopterhire.net.

Within the space of several years, the Transport Broker Group has successfully launched a number of high achieving companies. One of their biggest success stories is Limo Broker which is now one of the UK’s leading providers of chauffeur driven limo hire. Coach Broker is following in its footsteps and is growing month on month with expansion plans taking its hire service to new parts of the UK and Ireland.

With their expertise in the transport industry, this venture is really taking off and is looking forward to a busy wedding season in 2010.

With the introduction of the helicopter hire website, the company is adding yet another valuable string to its bow. The launch of the new service means the group is well on its way to achieving a complete transport hire service covering the widest range of vehicles possible.
