New northern hub opened by Pall-Ex
April 22nd 2010

Pall-Ex has opened the Northern Gateway – near Carlisle off the M6 – to cover the North of England and Scotland.

The move is aimed at reduced the mileage travelled by depots operating in the north and saving time and fuel, as well as reducing carbon footprint and improving efficiency of collections and deliveries.

The network will also enhance its structure for Scottish deliveries, with the site also providing a secure environment for customers’ freight.

The move also allows Pall-Ex to offer additional warehouse space, a dedicated fleet and full load and groupage services at competitive rates.

Hilary Devey, CEO of Pall-Ex, said: “The Northern Gateway provides improved operational efficiencies to Pall-Ex and will mean customers can now make next day deliveries to towns such as Inverness.

“Customers in Scotland with freight going to any location in England now only have to drop off at the hub now based in Cumbria and vice versa.”
