Pall-Ex delivers 180,000 Christmas trees


Pall-Ex is helping a local Christmas tree wholesaler reduce the kilometres from forest to front door by transporting products via its pallet network through the UK. The logistics company has been enlisted by Cadeby Tree Trust to deliver 180,000 trees, which must travel from farm to customer within five days.

 

Christian Bonshor, general manager at Cadeby Tree Trust, comments: “We need to ensure our products arrive in the same condition as they leave the farm, so how they are transported is a key part of our success as a business. Speed is a major consideration for us; trees must be left to rest for 24 hours after cutting, before they are netted, palletised and loaded, so that leaves us with a four-day window for getting the product to the customer. Pall-Ex enables us to deliver within this tight timeframe, but also to scale up as the season gets underway; it also allows us to make smaller drops to multiple destinations and ensures vehicles are available when we need them."

 

Mark Steel, sales and marketing director at Pall-Ex Group, comments: “As a team, we are delighted to be supporting Cadeby Tree Trust with their delivery requirements." (mw)
