Ballymena logistics specialist TST Group has grown its partnership with Pallet-Track which will increase the number of pallets it handles each day.
Family-run TST has been a shareholder of Pallet-Track since 2017 and manages an average of 500 pallets daily for the UK distribution network via its Birmingham operation.
But the new deal will boost the number of pallets TST handles per day for Pallet-Track to 800, while also improving efficiency and service for Pallet-Track customers shipping goods across the Irish Sea.
Liam Reid, chief executive of TST, said “This partnership is a pivotal development, where we will provide additional palletised freight collection and final-mile delivery services to service both UK and Northern Ireland. We look forward to this winning collaboration.
“We look forward to growing our operation alongside TST Group in Northern Ireland.”
Stuart Godman, chief executive of Pallet-Track, added: “This is a strategic move to increase our presence in Northern Ireland while ensuring we maintain our high levels of customer service.
“TST Group is a highly regarded shareholder member of our network, with impressive service levels and the natural choice to support Pallet-Track with our growth in the region.
“We look forward to growing our operation alongside TST Group in Northern Ireland.”
