Palletforce, the UK leader in express palletised distribution, has continued to strengthen its national network with the addition of two new members in key strategic locations, providing additional network capacity to support growth and service excellence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Route2 Logistics, which has its headquarters in Dunfermline and a main depot in Glasgow, has joined Palletforce to manage KY postcodes around Kirkaldy, Dunfermline, Glenrothes and St Andrews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Working alongside its group businesses, Adamsons and The Cress Co, it operates a total of 130 vehicles and has 270 staff. It recently opened a new depot in Coatbridge, near Glasgow, and has its sights firmly set on developing its network freight operations and building a loyal customer base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Route2 Logistics Managing Director Joe Wall said: \u201cOperating originally as food wholesalers, we move a lot of freight between our own depots and we run an extensive delivery fleet, which has now developed into a standalone B2B distribution business. Palletforce works for us as we have our own freight to input and have trunks running back north into Scotland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cPalletforce was recommended after we spoke to a few other members. The inter-member relationships in the network are very good and there\u2019s a very pragmatic working approach between the members, and that works well.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pro-Despatch, which operates from its main depot in Huyton, Liverpool, has also joined Palletforce to handle CH postcodes around Birkenhead and the Wirral.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The business was founded by Chris Martin and Andy O\u2019Dowd in 2021 as a parcel courier but has expanded to incorporate a fleet of 40 vehicles and 65 staff, based at depots in Warrington and Huyton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pro-Despatch started as a same-day courier and grew thanks to an ethos of customer service and a reputation for improving commercial relationships. As a natural progression, and in response to customer demand, it moved into pallet distribution and targeted network membership to drive further growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pro-Despatch Director Chris Martin said: \u201cJoining Palletforce provides us with the opportunity to offer customers a full suite of distribution services \u2013 from same-day courier work to next-day palletised freight, full loads and international deliveries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe visited the SuperHub and were very impressed with what was in place. Everyone has been extremely helpful and other members have been brilliant with us. Palletforce has been a great network to join, it is amazing to see how everyone sticks together and helps each other out.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chris Dennigan, Palletforce Network Development Director, said: \u201cPalletforce continues to attract a wide range of industry sector specialists as we continue to build network capacity, add market expertise and strengthen our network. Our values, commitment to service and ongoing investment continue to highlight Palletforce as a partner of choice for the UK logistics sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe welcome both Route2 Logistics and Pro-Despatch to the Palletforce network and are excited to have them on board as we prioritise delivering the highest levels of service and customer experience.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
