O’Toole Transport honoured with the Fleet Transport Irish Haulier of the Year Award 2026
Yet another All-Ireland title has been won by Galway with O’Toole Transport, Moycullen securing the prestigious title - Fleet Transport Irish Haulier of the Year Award 2026, sponsored by Rosslare Europort, at a Gala Banquet held at the Johnstown Estate Hotel, Enfield, County Meath on Thursday 16 October. It was the second such honour for the family owned company entering its 30th year in business, having received this accolade for 2015.
Laurence O’Toole, Managing Director, O’Toole Transport was presented with a specially commissioned themed pencil painting by award winning artist Bernie Prendergast. In fact, seventeen counties from around the country were shortlisted as finalists in the annual competition, which
highlights, rewards and promotes best practice in
transport industry.
O’Toole’s continuous investment and expansion in business and services at home and abroad were noted by the judging panel as well as its trustworthy reputation built up over the years with its leading brand customer base.
More than 600 attendees were generous in their applause for the overall prize winner, following the announcement by compère Claire Brock. Musical entertainment was performed by the Electric Twist Band. Earlier in the evening O’Toole’s won the Refrigerated Transport Specialist (International/National) category, sponsored by Thermo King.
O’Toole Transport’s status as one of Ireland’s premier food logistics company can be traced back to the 1940s, to when John
the Irish road
Patrick O’Toole purchased a Commer lorry in a bid to establish a local agricultural delivery business. Based in Moycullen, this early foray into small-scale Connemara logistics proved successful and the company expanded into general haulage serving the area until John Pake’s untimely death in 1963 aged 56.
In 1996, the O’Toole family came together and set up O’Toole Transport Ltd as a family run business. With only a handful of prospective customers, O’Toole Transport set out on a path that would lead not only to full family employment but to a total full-time staff of 220 employees.
Their first vehicle, a Scania 93M 230, was pivotal in helping O’Toole Transport become a reliable carrier. In early 2000, O’Toole Transport became heavily involved in transport for the food industry, developing a network of industry contacts even further and expanding the fleet to its current size of over 190 trucks and 250 trailers.
On receiving the awards, Laurence O’Toole, Managing Director, O’Toole Transport, was delighted in winning the overall prize, saying that he, his family and his team were “extremely pleased” to win what is widely regarded as the most prestigious prize in the Irish road transport industry.
“It’s a fitting end to what has been a difficult year for the O’Toole family having lost our beautiful mother Angela suddenly in the summer. Her work in helping set up the company in 1996 will never be forgotten, and we dedicate this award in recognition of her contributions. A big thanks to our people in
Galway, Dublin, Glasgow and Liverpool. Next year will mark 30 years of O’Toole Transport, we will celebrate it as a proud family business,” concluded Laurence.
Jarlath Sweeney, Group Editor, Fleet Publications, on behalf of the event organisers said: “Sincere congratulations to O’Toole Transport, once again deserved winners of the Irish Haulier of the Year award. The progress and expansion of the company is noteworthy as are the high standards that they have created and maintained throughout its day-to-day operations at home and abroad. True ambassadors for the Irish road transport industry.”
Hosted by Fleet Publications, the long established, highly sought after awards programme consists of the Irish Haulier of the Year Awards, the Irish Truck of the Year, Irish Green Commercials Awards and the Irish Truck & Trailer Innovation Awards. On this occasion the Truck awards were presented to Volvo, MAN, DAF and Renault Trucks, while Maxus, Ford, Volkswagen, Renault, Nissan took the ‘Green’ trophies with Iveco and Meiller/Setanta winning the Trucks & Trailer Innovation awards.
Also on the night, a number of special presentations were made and inducted into the Fleet Transport Awards Hall of Fame, to mark company milestones such as: Iveco (50 years), Jennings family/Jennings Truck Centre/Longhaul Commercials (80 years), Moffett Engineering (80 years), Sean Moriarty Transport (40 years), Zellwood (30 years) and Brendan Phelan (30+ year’s service award) and Easytrip (20 years).

All HGV & LCV brands in contention for the Fleet Transport Award’s Irish Truck of the Year & Green Commercials Awards 2026
All of the main HGV and LCV brands were in contention for Ireland’s most prestigious commercial vehicle titles, the Fleet Transport Irish Truck of the Year & Green Commercials Awards, which were announced and presented at Fleet Transport Awards Gala Banquet, held at the Johnstown Estate Hotel, Enfield, County Meath on Thursday 16 October.
The Volvo FH16 780 Globetrotter XXL 6x2 won the top prize, the Irish Flagship Truck of the Year 2026, with the DAF XD 310 4x2 rigid winning the Irish Distribution Truck of the Year 2026 in the Medium class while the MAN TGS 26.440 6x2 securing the Irish Distribution Truck of the Year 2026 in the Heavy category.
Leading up to the prize giving ceremony, the experienced adjudication panel assessed more than thirty commercials; trucks and vans, over three days. Paired up, the judges undertook a static inspection, followed by a set driving route on the road, and heard the technical aspects of each truck and van from the distributor’s representatives.
Various aspects of each vehicle’s design and styling is reviewed from its overall appearance, aerodynamics, entry and exit, driver comfort, ergonomics, safety enhancements, powertrain efficiency and overall visibility. Representatives from the Irish Truck and Green Commercial awards sponsors PTSB and ePower were on hand to observe and engage in the activities and were impressed with the high levels of performance and technology on display during the event.
“Our 2026 Awards Gala marked 23 years in hosting the Irish Truck of the Year Awards and over the decades we have honoured the many brands and models which have excelled in terms of top class engineering and innovation, stemming from continued major investment in research and development. Our judging panel, selected from a number of commercial vehicle sectors looked at these vehicles in different ways, coming up with a unified consensus on selecting and electing the prize winners. Congratulations to the award winners on the night,” said Jarlath Sweeney, Group Editor, Fleet Publications, on behalf of the organisers.
Alongside and also highlighted on the night were the Irish Green Commercial of the Year awards, where the sector has seen a growing number of established light commercial vehicle manufacturers offering existing models with an electric option, in various segments and in addition with some newcomers, mostly from China, which has entered the European LCV market with totally emission-free drivetrains. Prime examples of which were presented and trialed during the Test Days.
Likewise a number of truck manufacturers had zero-emission HGVs in contention for the Irish Green trophies also, with the Renault T-High E-Tech 4x2 tractor-unit emerging victorious.
In the van sector, accolades were presented and shared in some cases, due to synergies and partnerships between automotive marques. Chinese brand Maxus was awarded the Small Green Van class with its eDeliver 5, while the Ford E-Transit and Volkswagen E-Transporter shared the Medium Green Van category and the Large Green Van honour was won jointly by the Renault Master E-Tech / Nissan Interstar-e / Renault Master E-Tech Red Edition.
In the separate Irish Truck & Trailer Innovation Awards, sponsored by MOFFETT, the winners of these long standing awards were IVECO S-Way 500 CNG 6x2 tractor-unit and Meiller Grandload Tipping semi-trailer (Half pipe).
When Iveco launched the S-Way CNG 6x2 tractor unit with 500hp and a 500km range, it was a game changer. The much sought after 6x2 configuration is a collaboration with Astra Vehicle Technologies. Sustainability minded truck operators can cut CO2 emissions by up to 95% when using biomethane instead of diesel. The S-Way CNG 6x2 is powered by the FPT XCursor 13 engine which features a 12.9-litre unit adapted to run efficiently on compressed natural gas. Now with 500hp, the latest developments with this power plant results in being 10% lighter and 8% more efficient than its predecessor.
Collectively, Setanta Vehicle Sales and Meiller Trailer’s (Germany) engineering teams co-developed a specific Aggregate Half Pipe Trailer for the UK and Ireland markets. The innovation involved the following:
n Engineering of a new chassis to allow for the longer tipping body
n New tipping body design in incorporate the additional length
n Advanced Automatic/Remote Controlled sliding Tarpaulin to meet the new body length
n Newly designed Hydraulic Cylinder, designed and manufactured by Meiller in-house as it required additional stability, also facilitates faster tipping speeds under lower pressures to meet the requirements of UK & Ireland truck PTO specifications.

The road transport industry rarely receives the recognition it deserves for the work done, or the services provided. The phone calls received to say well done, that was a great job, or a simple thanks – are few, if any.
Nevertheless, there is a great deal of work done quietly without fanfare or seeking accolades. This is true for the many occasions when an operator provides services to local and national groups at their own expense.
These services can range from providing time, equipment, facilities or

Fleet Transport Awards promotes Elephant in the Room movement
‘Let’s Talk’ is the theme of the Elephant in the Room movement that was promoted at the Fleet Transport Awards event on 16 October at the Johnstown Estate Hotel, Enfield on 16 October 2025.
The Elephant in the Room movement is a transformative mental health awareness campaign that is revolutionising the way people’s mental well-being is addressed and supported from boardrooms to schools across the globe. The movement challenges mental health stigma and promotes discussion and media engagement by bringing business, arts and the community or communities together to create this amazing awareness campaign which is capturing the imagination of the business community in Ireland and around the world.
“Everybody has their own individual Elephant in the Room – things that they
find difficult to discuss because there is stigma surrounding the topic. This movement is all about supporting all people and bringing hope with the simple message of ‘saving lives one normal conversation at a time’. Each new elephant art sculpture creates the opportunity for more people to start a conversation about the stigmas that most affect them, to open up and talk about their ‘Elephant in the Room’. It is also a reminder to everyone to be kinder in their interactions with others because you may never know what is going on in their day, or their lives,” explained Eoin Byrne, Elephant in the Room Movement.
logistics essential to ensure the success of Pieta’s fundraising and awareness events, his work has influenced the lives of so many people in an immeasurable way. Equally, his involvement with Pieta arose from an event that created a deep personal connection and understanding of the valuable work of the charity does.
a quote from pieta house
“Our committees and team couldn’t do what we do without Paul and his team, and he is truly a kind and inspiring Hope Hero.”
“The Elephant in the Room movement is a global initiative that promotes an open culture and de-stigmatises conversations around mental health. We invite forward-thinking corporations and organisations throughout the world to join the movement and use bespoke art sculptures to ignite conversations and change the narrative around stigma, bias and mental well-being in workplaces and everywhere.”
