The carrier of the year 2023

On March 27th, Astre was present at the 35th carrier’s trophy ceremony in a “MAGICAL” place, the Parc des Princes, with more than 350 guests.
The programme included a private tour of the stadium, a cocktail party and, of course, the awards ceremony, with in particular the nomination of Transports Barbero, a member of the Astre Group, for the Carrier of the Year award.

Four Transport Awards were given by the jury to :

• Patrick BARBERO, President of Transports BARBERO
• Julien GARNIER, CEO of Primever Group
• Stéphane COIN, CEO of Transports GAGNE
• Benjamin GONZALEZ, manager of Transports Goëvia

Julien GARNIER won the Carrier of the Year award, a trophy which distinguishes a road transport company for the development of its activity, its commitment to the environment and HR management…

These four managers could speak at the ceremony.
🎤 “I was fed up with having my vehicles’ tanks siphoned off in the Miramas region. But just by indicating that the vehicle is running on B100, it stops…. One of the advantages of the B100 is that it’s a free anti-theft device!“

Finally, the jury special price, which rewards a company, an association or an institution for the general interest of the profession, was awarded to the Rungis International Market, represented by Stéphane Layani , CEO.

The evening was rich in exchanges and emotion, with a tribute paid to Joël Vigneron, who was a key figure in French transport sector.

We congratulate L’Officiel des transporteurs for the organisation of this beautiful evening which, as every year, was a great success.
