Berser International expands its business
Stoke-on-Trent based logistics firm, Berser International Cargo Services Ltd, has expanded its business to cover the south Cheshire area to meet the requirement for overnight palletised freight distribution throughout the UK and Europe.
Berser International is part of the Berser Group founded in 1979 in the Netherlands. The Berser Group operates a fleet of over 35 vehicles. The recent expansion has meant investment in two new specially equipped vehicles with increased freight carrying capacity and the employment of extra personnel, together with an increase in handling equipment resources.
Berser International 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, which provides a range of express distribution services for small consignments of palletised freight, including next day, economy and timed delivery options.
Managing Director Robert Marks said, “The expansion means we can offer cost effective overnight palletised freight solutions to customers in not only Stoke-on- Trent but also south Cheshire.”
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.
By accessing the Palletways website and entering their unique login name, Berser International’s customers are able to go online and check the status and location of their consignment with track and trace.
