ON 27 July 2020, FTA changed its name to Logistics UK. The reason for the change? FTA says it has always represented members from road, rail, sea and air, as well as those with goods to move like retailers and manufacturers.
‘FTA will not be changing its focus or the services, support and advice it provides to its 18,000+ member businesses,’ said David Wells, chief executive.
‘The name change to Logistics UK is a natural progression and makes it more obvious to stakeholders, like policymakers and young people looking to develop a career in logistics, that we are the only business group that represents the whole industry. I believe this change will strengthen our position, and give us a great opportunity to achieve even more for members in the months and years to come.’
