The transport arm of our operation is looked after by Robert Cox.
This second string to our bow allows us to haul for hire and reward as we have a Standard National Operators Licence to cover both moving our own produce or doing road haulage - this enables us to economise in terms of back loading.
We now run 7 articulated units each carrying in the region of 29 tonnes per load.
Our own transport is capable of hauling 3000+ tonnes per week within the East Midlands area. We treat the transport side of our operation very seriously and maintenance and cleanliness are top priority to ensure our goods are delivered on time and in a safe and sound condition.
We have a cleaning regime in operation which enables us to conform to our obligations towards grain trade assurance requirements.
We recognise that our staff who drive and operate our grain trucks are in the front line so far as customer relations are concerned.
They are all highly qualified and experienced workers who can be relied upon to look after your interests during transportation of your commodities to their eventual destination.
Economics have dictated many changes in our industry over the years - with farms getting bigger and the merchanting trade getting smaller - the need to be competitive has never been so evident as now.
To remain competitive in a true and level market situation is our aim. The major expense of getting a commodity from the grower to the consumer is transport!
