FTA celebrate in style

24/06/2014

The Freight Transport Association, which has a branch in Ireland celebrated its 125th anniversary recently.

A special function was held in the Mansion House in London to celebrate the milestone, and hundreds attended the gala event on the night.

Guest of Honour at the celebratory dinner was the Princess Royal and she spoke of how the FTA’s achievement of reaching such a landmark was such an accolade.

“Doesn't time fly?,” she said. “It certainly doesn't feel like twenty five years ago when I was invited to join the FTA here at the Mansion House to commemorate its centenary, and I am delighted to be here this evening to once again to celebrate the remarkable achievements of the Association over the past 125 years.”
