The team is celebrating winning an award for excelling in sales development, as voted for by a network of logistics industry peers.

The dedicated Air & Sea division of leading independent logistics provider, Europa Worldwide Group, was named the Best Agent for Sales Development at the FFSI Annual Conference.

FETA (Far East Transportation Association) was launched in 1982 by a group of Asia-based freight forwarders to form a global network of alliances.

Angus Hind, Europa Air & Sea Director, was presented with a trophy by Chairman Chris Waterson at the conference in Hong Kong last month.

Angus said: “This is a fantastic achievement for Europa Air & Sea, particularly because the award is voted for by our fellow agents.

“I’m delighted we’ve been recognised for sales development because it shows the success and efficiency of our structure.

“We greatly value being part of the FFSI network because all members are high-quality organisations who provide valuable support.

“I’d like to say a big ‘thank you’ to the network for this accolade, as well as our hardworking teams across the UK and Hong Kong.”

Europa Air & Sea is going from strength to strength since launching in 2015, growing to a team of 48 across the UK and Hong Kong and reaching a turnover of £35million.

The division recently produced its first animation to showcase the service it provides.

It has been four years since Europa centralised its Air services in Heathrow and its Sea services in Birmingham.

The division aims for further growth this year. The intention is to embed at least one Air & Sea Business Development Manager at each of Europa Road’s European road freight branches throughout the UK.
