TNT Express Worldwide has won the coveted Best Road Haulier Asia award for the third time running in the Asian Freight and Supply Chain Awards, organised by Cargonews Asia magazine.

"Having established the largest door-to-door road and air network in Europe, TNT is already a market leader in this region," said Onno Boots, TNT's regional managing director of TNT southeast Asia at the Macau awards night.

Winning Asia's Best Road Haulier award involved being voted best by readers for timely pick-up and delivery of freight, extensive infrastructure to support business needs, effective and user-friendly IT systems and competitive rates.

By combining road and air transport, TNT said it was able to provide a cost and time effective business solution. "The success of our road transport service is definitely the key to our win," Mr Onno said.
