Gloucester transport boss re-elected National Chair of Road Haulage Association
Moreton Cullimore, the boss of road haulage and aggregate business The Cullimore Group, has been re-elected as chair of the national Road Haulage Association.
He was first elected in 2021, at 41 the youngest national chairperson in the organisation’s history.
As chair of the RHA’s Midlands, Western, and Wales regional council, Moreton champions the issues facing hauliers within the region.
Established in 1927, The Cullimore Group has multiple quarry sites across the South West. Moreton was named managing director in 2010, becoming the third generation of the Cullimore family to be involved in the firm.
The RHA is a campaigning organisation and, ahead of the General Election, recently wrote to the leaders of the three main parties to call for better and more secure roadside facilities, skills investment and improved infrastructure.
The association said: "Our industry is a major employer nationwide - and a key economic enabler. The productivity and competitiveness of the British economy needs a skilled and efficient road transport and haulage sector; with the infrastructure in place to support it.
"We want to keep the UK supply-chain moving and performing at the highest possible levels and our members and businesses across the industry (HGVs, LGVs and Coaches) want to know that our nation’s leaders are taking their concerns seriously and are willing to engage and collaborate.
"Our 8,500 member companies are keen to understand the parties’ plans for our sector and how this will impact them now and in the future."
