Hoolie In The Hydro Sponsorship
Ferguson Transport & Shipping were delighted to be sponsoring Hoolie in the Hydro in the OVO Hydro again this year! Described as ‘Scotland’s largest ceilidh’, it was yet another amazing evening of traditional Scottish music, ceilidh dancing, and a lively atmosphere in Glasgow
We’re proud to support an event which celebrates Scotland’s culture and community, and this year also celebrated one of Scotland’s biggest icons, Sir Billy Connolly.
Sponsoring Lochaber Rotary Christmas Festival
We were delighted to sponsor the Cairngorm reindeer again for 2025, as part of Lochaber Rotary’s Christmas Festival, which is held annually in Fort William.
As part of our sponsorship, two members of our team, Elaine Alexander and Molly Johnstone, dedicated their time to reviewing entries and selecting this year’s winners for the Rotary Santa’s elves competition. All artwork was displayed in the Nevis Centre during the Christmas Festival.
The overall prize gave two lucky children the chance to join Santa on his sleigh, pulled by the Cairngorm Reindeer, travelling from Cameron Square to the Nevis Centre. It was a great example of how we continue to support our community.
Christmas Tree Delivery
We were delighted to support Karen and the Fort William Festive Fund team again this year, and deliver the Christmas tree to The Parade in Fort William.
A big thanks to our transport team for coordinating, and our driver Neggie for delivering the town’s Christmas trees ahead of this Friday’s Festive Light Switch On 2025 in Fort William high street.
Lochcarron & District Men’s Shed Association Sponsorship – cabin transport
Ferguson Transport & Shipping are proud to support the areas we operate in, and in years gone by have backed various organisations and clubs in the Lochcarron and Kishorn area.
We last year delivered a cabin, generously gifted to the community by RJ McLeod Contractors Ltd, for Lochcarron & District Men’s Shed Association. Last week saw the official opening of this important community hub, and our Port General Manager, Mike Bauermeister, was delighted to attend and celebrate this milestone with the Lochcarron & District Men’s Shed Association, and wider Lochcarron community.
A great afternoon was had by all

Ferguson Transport & Shipping were proud to sponsor the West Highland Chamber of Commerce Charles Kennedy Lecture again for 2025.
Delivered this year by influential Highlander Maggie Cunningham, this event brings the West Highland community together for a fascinating talk exploring ideas, connections, and the future of our region.
Our team had a great night listening to Maggie Cunningham’s inspiring talk on how we can work together to tackle rural inequality and poverty, and build stronger Highland communities.
Thank you to the team for organising such an amazing event.
Ferguson Transport & Shipping sponsor Camanachd Association U14 & U17 North Inter-Area Competitions
Ferguson Transport & Shipping are proud to sponsor the U14 and U17 North Inter-Area tournaments again for 2025.
Organised by the Camanachd Association, and hosted by Lochaber Camanachd Club, our team thoroughly enjoyed watching the matches, and very promising to see all of the talented shinty players coming up through school level. A huge well done to all the players, teams and coaches who took part in both competitions. Congratulations to Badenoch who won the U17 shield, and to Inverness on winning the U14 shield.

Our team had a great time at TRUCKFEST Scotland over the weekend, showcasing 6 of our Volvo FH 500’s, the oldest truck in our fleet, our 1986 Volvo F12 ‘Timber Jack’, and one of our brand new trucks on display at the Volvo Trucks stand.
A big thank you to our team organising another great trip to Ingliston, and to our drivers for having their trucks show ready.
Balliemore Cup Final Hospitality Day 2025
Ferguson Transport & Shipping are proud sponsors of the Camanachd Association Balliemore Cup, and recently we offered our customers, guests, and colleagues’ hospitality at the Cup Final.
The match between Lochaber Camanachd Club & Inveraray, held at Spean Bridge Playing Fields, was an exciting afternoon of shinty, and a hard-fought final with Lochaber securing a 3-0 win. The mixed weather certainly didn’t put anyone off and a great day was had by all!
Well done to both teams for their hard work and efforts reaching the final, and a huge congratulations to Lochaber winning the 2025 Balliemore Cup.
A huge thank you to our team for all the hard work setting up in the lead up to and on the day of the event.
Proud supporters of our local primary school fun nights
Ferguson Transport & Shipping enjoyed once again attending the Fun Nights hosted by Bun-Sgoil Ghàidhlig Loch Abar, Banavie, and Spean Bridge Primary School this year.
We had the pleasure of placing one of our Volvo FH trucks at the events, giving families the opportunity to explore. It was wonderful to see the community spirit at the events and support children and parents to discover more about our trucks. We hope this experience has sparked an interest in the next generation and inspired some future HGV drivers!
