TST Group is boosting the number of pallets it handles for Pallet-Track, from 500 to 800 pallets a day, whilst also improving efficiency and service for the pallet network’s customers shipping goods across the Irish Sea.
The move is part of a wider strategy which sees both TST Group and Pallet-Track ramp up their expansion into Northern Ireland.
The family-run transport and logistics group TST Group is based in Ballymena, Northern Ireland (pictured) and has been a shareholder of Pallet-Track since 2017. It currently manages an average of 500 pallets per day for the UK distribution network via its Birmingham operation.
Liam Reid, TST chief executive, said: ”Our partnership with Pallet-Track represents a pivotal development for TST Group and Pallet-Track.
“With this partnership, TST Group will now further provide palletised freight collection and final-mile delivery services to service both UK and Northern Ireland. We look forward to this winning collaboration.”
Stuart Godman, Pallet-Track chief executive, added: ”This is a strategic move to increase Pallet-Track’s 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.”
