Entrepreneur - Winner
Amanda Unsworth is the Managing Director of Trinity Logistics, a female-led business in a male dominated industry. Amanda's career story has humble beginnings, with her working as a docker at Liverpool Port at the age of 17. From there she worked for a number of shipping lines in the UK and Europe, eventually holding a global management position in India. After 14 years Amanda moved into freight forwarding, setting up a Liverpool supply chain department which flourished. It was while in this position and after falling pregnant with her second child that she decided to go it alone and established Trinity Logistics. She took her first company to a turnover of £42 million in 2022 and opened a sister office in Shenzhen, China – all before the age of 40. With over 25 years of experience in shipping and logistics Amanda is now an advocate for trying to influence the industry, together with its clients and suppliers in going greener – encouraging shipments to be delivered closer to the end destination – maximising the use of Liverpool Ports to deliveries to the North, utilising rail and moving cargo to local hubs for onward deliveries.
