Palletforce is in the running for no fewer than three accolades at this year\u2019s prestigious Motor Transport Awards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The network has been shortlisted in the Apprenticeship of the Year, Best Use of Technology, and Business Excellence categories alongside the likes of Royal Mail, Eddie Stobart Logistics and Europa Worldwide Group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And of nearly 60 leading UK businesses selected for this year\u2019s awards, only three have more nominations across the 19 available categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The judges were impressed with Palletforce\u2019s submissions, which highlighted the huge strides the company has made over the last 12 months in terms of investment and infrastructure development across its network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the Best Use of Technology award, Palletforce highlighted the creation of a new fleet of intelligent Super Fork-Lift Trucks, equipped with state-of-the-art imaging, scanning and weighing technology. The Apprenticeship of the Year submission focused on the industry-leading Palletforce FLT Academy, run in close conjunction with Burton and South Derbyshire College.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meanwhile for the blue riband Business Excellence category, Palletforce\u2019s financial performance and growth strategy, bolstered by the recent launch of an Asian service, earned the company a place on the four-strong shortlist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
