Wirral-based Cabfind.com is in the running for a national accolade after being shortlisted in the Business Travel Awards 2014.

The organisation has been shortlisted in the category for Best Ground Transportation Company.

Now UK market leaders, it specialises in nationwide ground transportation services, and manages the private hire transport needs of corporate clients and the public sector with a virtual fleet of over 120,000 vehicles through a network of 1,300 approved suppliers.
