Professional Driver of the Year “Team of Champions” reunion dinner 2014 hosted by the ATA Foundation Sponsors on Hamilton Island
Who are the ATA’s Foundation Sponsors
BP Australia, National Transport Insurance and Volvo Trucks signed on as the ATA’s Foundation Sponsors in 1991. Their initial support secured the future of the fledgling organisation, then known as the Road Transport Forum.
Since then they have combined to contribute many millions of dollars to the ATA’s advocacy, policy, communications, awards, events and community outreach programs.
The integrity of each of their brands, and their fundamental values, align with the mission of the ATA in our quest for safety, professionalism and viability.
The ATA’s Foundation Sponsors continue to be vital contributors, notwithstanding the invaluable connection they each provide to large sectors of the trucking industry through their own customer networks.
The ATA congratulates and commends BP, NTI & Volvo for their tramneous loyal support, for 25 years in 2016, and still going strong.
BP is one of the world’s leading international oil and gas companies, with operations across North America, Europe, Southern Africa and Asia-Pacific. Day to day, our business engages in exploration, production, distribution and marketing of a wide range of high-quality refined petroleum products. BP’s fuels keep people, trucks, ships, airplanes, and industrial equipment on the move. In Australia, BP has been operating for almost 100 years and has a network of over 1400 fuel and convenience sites across the country. Today, BP is the only oil and gas company operating in the Australian market from refinery to bowser. BP continues to focus on reinventing our consumer offer to ensure we are a first class retailer. |
Volvo Trucks has been a proud part of Australia’s road transport industry since 1967 and has grown to become one of the largest heavy-duty truck suppliers in our country today. Volvo has a long history with Australia and has been a strong supporter of the trucking industry, both here and overseas.

Today, they are the world’s third largest producer of heavy trucks, creating reliable transport solutions for clients all over the world. Volvo Trucks is a Foundation Sponsor of the Australian Trucking Association since 1991 and has been a great supporter of many of the industry’s initiatives, including SafeT360 and the National Trucking Industry Awards. |
