The Freight Transport Association has launched FTA Ireland at a ceremony held at Dublin Castle with founding members including prominent Irish businesses and transport companies.
Chris Welsh, general manager at the FTA who was responsible for establishing FTA Ireland, said: “FTA Ireland is an autonomous organisation that will have its own board and policy making committees and will develop its own channels of communication with the Irish Government and other policy agencies. It will benefit from the stewardship and capabilities of FTA, including its range of information and support services, but it will be an Irish voice for Irish logistics.”
