Operating approximately 5,700 vehicles across 175 sites, its members provide transport, storage and distribution services across the UK and Europe. At the same time, the Association supports collaboration, knowledge sharing and best practice across the industry.

Hankook Tyre UK to Share Commercial Fleet Insights at 2026 Conference
As exclusive sponsor, Hankook will contribute to the conference programme with insights into issues increasingly important to commercial vehicle fleet operators, including tyre efficiency, safety, sustainability and total cost of ownership. As decarbonisation, cost efficiency and electrification continue to shape the road transport landscape, the conference provides a valuable forum for open discussions among those operating, managing and supplying the UK’s commercial vehicle fleets.
Jon Cottrell, Network & Operations Manager at Hankook Tyre UK, said, “We’re delighted to support The Transport Association and its members at this year’s conference. The transport sector is evolving rapidly, and close collaboration across the industry will be essential. We look forward to sharing our experience, hearing different perspectives and contributing to the practical discussions taking place throughout the event.”
The partnership further underlines Hankook’s commitment to working alongside fleet operators and industry organisations to develop practical solutions that support the future of commercial mobility.
