Bellshill, Lanarkshire-based Murray Logistics has leftpallet network Fortec after two-and-half years to join Palletways. The decision was based on Palletways offering the 12-truckfirma better postcode choice, and a90-palletper day average compared withFortec's 50.
MD Stewart Murray Hargreave says:"With Palletways, 65% of our destinations are now within a six-mile radius,whereaspreviously therange wasa lot higher. This saves us money by giving us more work closer to home."
