BIFA News
Supporting standards in journalism
BIFA was a proud supporter of the Seahorse Freight Association Journalism Awards 2025 and joined the finalists at the event in early December. The Seahorse Freight Association brings companies in the supply chain, logistics and transport industry together with the media who report on them, and the public relations and marketing professionals who work in the sector. As the leading trade association for UK freight forwarders and logistics companies, BIFA recognises the vital role that journalists and media professionals play
in shining a light on the challenges, achievements, and evolving landscape of the global supply chain. By supporting these prestigious and long- standing awards, we reaffirm our commitment to encouraging accurate, insightful and impactful reporting across the freight and logistics industry. We congratulate all the winners and runners-up, as well as all who entered. More details about the awards and the full list of this year’s winners can be seen at: https://seahorseclub.co.uk/jo urnalist-awards-2025/
