The highly anticipated EliteClass 2024 Awards Ceremony brought together 40 Daimler Truck Business Partners for a night of recognition and celebration. Held at the One&Only Royal Mirage, the prestigious black-tie event honoured top-performing General Distributors who have demonstrated exceptional performance, dedication, and commitment to excellence in 2024.
