We are proud to announce its victory at the WKÖ Export Award 2024, winning the Gold Award in the Transport and Traffic category. This prestigious accolade underscores our long-standing commitment to innovation and excellence in the international transport industry.

The Exportpreis, organized by the Austrian Federal Economic Chamber (AUSSENWIRTSCHAFT AUSTRIA), celebrated its 30th anniversary this year with a grand ceremony at the historic Vienna Hofburg. From over 5,000 submissions, VEGA's outstanding achievements in international value creation and sustainability were recognized by a top-class jury from the fields of economy, politics, and media.

The award was graciously received by our CFO Dr. Thomas Mackinger and Head of Customer Care Tamara Blum. Federal President Alexander Van der Bellen opened the event, and the awards were presented by Minister of Labor Martin Kocher and President of the Austrian Federal Economic Chamber Harald Mahrer.

VEGA's journey began in 1990, revolutionizing the transport sector with innovative solutions like our r2L technology, which facilitates the rail transport of non-cranable trailers. With 11 subsidiaries worldwide and over 600 dedicated employees, VEGA continues to set new standards in environmental friendliness and efficiency.

Our extensive international network enables us to stay close to our customers and respond effectively to market needs. Exports have always been a significant part of our business, accounting for around 95% of our total volume in recent years. Our operations span across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, India, and the USA, serving customers in 78 countries on four continents.

True to our motto "Excellence Is Our Driver," we strive to exceed customer expectations with every innovation and service. Our goal is to achieve completely CO2-neutral logistics, contributing to a greener future.

We are immensely grateful to our entire team for their unwavering support and dedication. As we look to the future, we are excited to continue leading the way in sustainable transport solutions.
