Driver of the Year award went to Dean Dodd, from Blyth, for the second time in his career after he became an apprentice in 2015.
Presenting the award to Dean, Caroline added: “Dean was our first driver apprentice who made a big impact in his first few years as he qualified for his Class 1 licence and was voted Driver of the Year shortly afterwards.
“Dean has again been voted for by his peers and recognised by the directors as Driver of the Year after meeting each of the criteria, including accident-free, having zero tachograph errors, and continuing to do his job to such a high standard.”

In addition, Pam Dent and Scott Edgar received long service awards. Pam, from Bedlington, is credit control and banking co-ordinator and has been with the company for 20 years, while delivery logistics planner Scott, from Blyth, joined the firm 15 years ago.
Staff were also recognised for their 100 percent attendance and other drivers were also recognised for their high standards.
Caroline added: “As always with awards, someone has to win, but our emphasis is also on thanking the whole team as without the collective effort we couldn’t have delivered such strong results over 2022.”
