Seatruck Ferries voted Irish Sea Shipping Line of the Year
Seatruck Ferries, Clipper's fully owned subsidiary operating ro-ro-vessles on the Irish Sea, has been voted Irish Sea Shipping Line of the Year at the annual Export & Freight Transport & Logistics Awards, the company said in its press release.
As those watching on at the awards ceremony heard: “This award is all about what the customer thinks and hauliers have voted for a company that has grown substantially over the last decade and a half, not only in size of fleet but in the quality of a service that has successfully filled a gap in the market for a freight operation serving Ireland”.
Managing Director Alistair Eagles comments:
“Throughout our continued growth and expansion we have remained close and committed to the customer whilst not losing sight of our humble beginnings. We remain focused on the needs of operators and are well positioned for the future with the backing of our parent company Clipper. We have had fantastic support from our customers, on behalf of everyone at Seatruck I would like to thank you for your continued support.
Seatruck’s focus on a freight only model is clearly working, with four ports and three routes we actively look at ways to reduce road miles for our customers compared with the traditional routing through Scotland or Wales. Seatruck has made large investments in purpose built new tonnage with 8 new buildings joining the fleet in the last 6 years. These new vessels bring the Seatruck Fleet size to a total of 12 modern freight ro-ro ferries.”
