Palletways extends palletized freight services into Switzerland

Palletways, Europe’s largest provider of express distribution services for small consignments of palletized freight, has appointed its member in Switzerland as part of the expansion of its Central European Network which also covers the Benelux countries, Germany, Denmark and northern France.

Palletways will provide a 48/72-hour distribution service to and from the regions covered by the Central European Network.

Palletways Central European Network is the company’s second pallet operation in mainland Europe. The company also provides express distribution services for small consignments of freight carried on pallets across Italy and is soon to establish an operation covering Spain and Portugal.

Adam Shuter, European Development Director at Palletways, said:

“The expansion of the CEN into Switzerland is part of our long-term aim to create the first pan-European pallet network. The development will open up the Swiss market to manufacturers and suppliers of goods across the countries in which we operate and provide them with a quicker and more costs effective route from/into Switzerland than ever before. It will also allow producers and suppliers of goods in Switzerland to access a major marketplace across Central Europe.”

Palletways Central European Network now has 30 members and more will be recruited to enable future growth.
