Nichols has worked in the transportation industry for more than 50 years and was honored for his dedication and impact on the industry during the conference at the U.S. Grant Hotel in Downtown San Diego.
According to Utility, Nichols was recognized among other key figures for their significant impact on the industry and the people in it.
“Bill has been a great ambassador for the organization throughout his career,” says Cory Pasek, vice president, sales and operations, Utility Trailer of Northern and Central California. “His work was instrumental in the Agriculture Equipment and Food Service Distribution industries for Utility. He was involved with the optimization and development of the equipment. On top of that, Bill has also been a great leader and community member for our team, and I have been privileged to have learned from him.”
The CTA Conference occurred in late January and centered on the future of the transportation industry. The conference was themed, “Defining Our Future” and conference speakers addressed the current issues and obstacles of the transportation industry, with an emphasis on the new direction and solutions of the future, Utility says.
“As these speakers looked to ‘Define the Future,’ they did so with an appreciation for the dedicated people and leaders like Bill whose work and dedication have made such conversations possible,” says Pasek.
