M&H Carriers has opened a new delivery hub in Perth and hailed it as “the gateway to the north”, giving customers greater access to the whole of Scotland.

The delivery firm’s new site comprises a 15,000 sq ft warehouse and one-and-a-half acre yard.

It said it would also increase its fleet with over 10 new vehicles, create new jobs and it has taken on experienced logistics professional Stephen Jamieson to head up the hub.

The Perth site is M&H Carriers’ fifth delivery hub alongside Inverness, Dundee and Argyll and joins its HQ in Aberdeen.

The firm said it would increase its delivery capacity in Perth and Dundee and also its trunking capacity to all of its northern locations.

Operations are supported across Scotland with 14 satellite depots, allowing M&H to provide higher levels of service to rural and remote communities.

New depots have been opened in Invergordon, Broadford, Aviemore and Lochgilphead.

MD Fraser MacLean said: “Perth is the gateway to the north of Scotland, connecting strategic population centres like Aberdeen, Inverness and Oban – and remote and rural communities – to the rest of the country.

“Our new hub in Perth will give customers greater access to the whole country, whether they are moving pallets, freight and parcels north or south – strengthening our network and creating new opportunities for growth.”
