The British International Freight Association (BIFA) is the premier trade association for UK-registered companies engaged in international air, road, rail, and sea freight shipping and/or customs brokerage. AsstrA UK Ltd, a member of the AsstrA-Associated Traffic AG corporate group, joined this prestigious association in 2020.

As is its tradition, the British International Freight Association organizes an annual BIFA Freight Service Awards competition for members.

The 2021 edition of this competition culminated in a luncheon ceremony on Thursday 20 January 2022 at The Brewery, an events venue in the City of London. AsstrA UK Ltd had the honor of being named a finalist for the Project Forwarder of the Year award.

“What a great day at the BIFA awards! Feeling extremely proud to have been recognized for our project forwarding work! Kudos to the AsstrA team and all of this year's nominees and winners. Each of you have made huge contribution to the Project Forwarding world,” says Anna Smirnova, UK Head of AsstrA Industrial Project Logistics.

Robert Keen, BIFA Director General, emphasized that BIFA members have recently overcome significant challenges, including the Covid-19 pandemic and Brexit, to keep the UK’s supply chains strong. For the entire AsstrA team, being recognized by such a well-respected organization is particularly meaningful and inspiring.
