Global brand Goodyear has cemented its relationship with the routeone Awards for Operator Excellence by becoming the event’s exclusive Headline Partner.
The news comes ahead of the 2018 Awards’ official launch next month.
Goodyear joins Alfatronix, Irizar UK, John Hill, Knorr-Bremse, Lytx, Mix Telematics, Paul Clark Services, TruTac, uTrack, Volvo and Yutong, which have already confirmed their commitment in partnering the coach, bus and minibus industry’s largest awards evening.
The routeone Awards 2018 gala presentation evening is on Wednesday 31 October at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole Hotel adjacent to the NEC.
Timed to coincide with this year’s PSV industry show – Euro Bus Expo on 30 October-1 November at the NEC, Birmingham – the Awards is the perfect high-profile and proven event for the industry to celebrate achievements and excellence.
“We are thrilled to become Headline Partner,” Says David Howe, Goodyear’s Commercial Sales GM.
“Goodyear is a major supplier to the coach and bus industry, so becoming Headline Partner of this prestigious event is a perfect fit for us.
“As we have recently launched Proactive Solutions, our unique predictive technology to optimise fleet management, it is a natural fit for us to also sponsor the Best Use of Technology award category.
“We look forward to welcoming a diverse audience to the Awards and celebrating the industry’s achievements and excellence.”
Adds routeone Awards Sales Manager Daniel Lunn: “I’m delighted to welcome Goodyear as our first ever Headline Partner. Goodyear has partnered the event for several years now and its decision to increase support marks a major step forward for the event as a whole.”
The search for excellence will start in March when manufacturers, dealers and suppliers will be invited to name the industry’s top operators and its best people. Nominees will submit their entries and be judged by our expert panel.
