Trucklink.EU is celebrating after receiving a prestigious industry accolade from logistics giant Pall-Ex for continually striving for excellence and achieving targets.
The Leicester based business was presented with the Regional Operational Excellence Award for the Central region, sponsored by Tile Mountain, during an exclusive ceremony held at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole to celebrate independent hauliers across the UK and Europe.
The company was selected for the award following its recognition in Pall-Ex Group’s Diamond Excellence scheme. The initiative rewards network members who have achieved targets set by the Group, with those reaching the set criteria each month being presented with a Diamond Excellence certificate.
Only Pall-Ex Group’s network members who had achieved at least one Diamond Excellence certificate were invited to this exclusive dinner, to reward them for their contribution to helping the Group achieve service excellence.
Trucklink.EU is a shareholder member of Pall-Ex – a palletised freight distribution network compromising of over 90 independent hauliers operating across the country and working together to deliver freight throughout the UK and Europe.
Paul Whelan, Depot Manager at Trucklink.EU comments: “We see Pall-Ex as a valuable tool in our ability to service our customer’s needs. As a business we strive for excellence in everything we do and this award is a welcome addition to the other accolades we have received over the past 12 months. …”
On its journey to excellence, Pall-Ex has gone from moving 117 pallets on its first night to transporting 40,000 pallets daily. The haulier has played a key role in helping to establish and grow Pall-Ex’s network services in the Midlands and beyond, contributing to Pall-Ex’s local and national success.
