Palletways: Local logistics company expands its business
Milton Keynes based logistics firm, Keyne Express Deliveries, has expanded its business to cover the Milton Keynes area, in order to meet the requirement for overnight palletised freight distribution throughout the UK and Europe.
Keyne Express Deliveries, a family run business, was founded in 1985 and operates a fleet of thirty vehicles. The company had previously covered the Hemel Hempstead – HP 1-3 and Milton Keynes – MK11 postcodes, and this expansion has seen them take on a further 17 MK postcodes.
Keyne Express Deliveries operates its overnight palletised freight distribution service through Palletways, the number one palletised freight network in the UK.
The company is one of more than 100 regional depots that make up the nationwide network, providing a range of express distribution services for small consignments of palletised freight, including next day, economy and timed delivery options.
Managing Director Ted Jarvis said, “We are delighted with the expansion to our services. This means we can now offer cost effective overnight palletised freight solutions to customers not only in Hemel Hempstead but also a wider area of Milton Keynes and its surrounding areas.”
Palletways was set up in 1994 and is the UK’s market leader in overnight palletised freight distribution, capable of handling over 20,000 pallets a day. At the heart of the operation is the Palletways hub in Lichfield. Any goods being transported into mainland Europe, including the Benelux countries, Denmark, France and Germany, are sent via the Palletways Central European Network hubs in Nijmegen in the Netherlands, Gent in Belgium and Troyes in France for onward delivery by local Palletways members.
