Aspray Transport:News

Aspray Transport is proud to have capped a great year with another major achievement – an unprecedented four awards at the annual prestigious Best of the Black Country business event.

Aspray Transport received the Blue Ribbon award for Best Company also best for Workforce Development and for Business Growth & Innovation, whilst our very own Managing Director, Stuart Laight scored a personal triumph after picking up the title for Outstanding Business Achievement.

On picking up the Business of the Year trophy, Stuart Laight said: “It is something you could not even dream about. It is a tribute to all our staff, each and every one of them, who have given so much support. It is a tough business to be in, and from humble beginnings we have become a large corporation but still maintaining that every individual is precious – the awards are for all of us. I told everyone that we were just glad to be nominated, but to have won not just one but four awards is difficult to take in.”

The awards success has come in a year that has seen Aspray Transport – employing 527 people on the road and at its headquarters in Willenhall – celebrate our quarter century and achieve a string of major business successes. In particular we are very proud of our record for Workforce Development.

The school also maintained its impressive 90 per cent pass rate - double the national average. Aspray was able to demonstrate its commitment to business growth and innovation with abundant evidence of its expansion: developing its outer depots and adding substantially to its vehicle fleet. Next year will see Aspray Transport spend in excess of £2 million on new fleet vehicles alone.
As an equal opportunities employer, Aspray Transport takes staff development seriously and its investment and training seems to be attracting many applicants who want to join this fast expanding company.
