Early pallet surge is a puzzler
Leading pallet networks are trying to work out why traffic volumes surged in Septmber, ahead of expectations.
Both Palletline and Pall-Ex say that the autumn increase in demand from customers came earlier than they had forecast. The rapidly-growing pallet networks are becoming an increasingly significant indicator of trends in the economy, with customers throughout the country and won through scores of different network members. The networks want to develop systems for analysing in more detail the sectors their traffic is coming from.
