everywoman in Transport and Logistics Awards 2022 | Everywoman Ltd | JW Marriott Grosvenor House London, 86-90 Park Ln, London W1K 7TN, UK

Now in their 15th year, the awards celebrate the vital contribution women make to transport and logistics showcasing progression, accomplishments and increasing avenues of opportunity within a traditionally male-dominated industry.

The Covid-19 crisis and driver shortages have thrown transport and logistics into the spotlight as never before, with those working in the sector hailed as key worker heroes for keeping essential suppliers stocked. The impact of this pressure has seen an increase in women entering the industry for the first time, with the number of female delivery drivers increasing by as much as 104%. However, women still only account for 20% of the 1.7 million people working in transport and logistics . Research shows that diverse teams are better positioned to unlock innovation and drive growth - this is why these awards play such an important role in highlighting success stories, shifting perceptions and creating role models to inspire future female talent.
