PF Whitehead Opts for Performance with Palletline

Driving quality and performance across the network, Palletline continues to develop its services in the south eastern region. The latest organisation to join the ranks of the UK's leading palletised distribution network is Croydon-based P F Whitehead Transport Services - originally founder members of Palletways - who bring with them almost two decades of experience in the sector.

Peter Whitehead, Managing Director of P F Whitehead, is clear about the motives behind his decision to join the Palletline network. "The pallet network sector has played an important role in our company's growth and development over the past nineteen years," he confirmed. "As a result, we recognise the real commercial advantages of switching to a network where we can play a more active part in defining corporate direction as a shareholder member company, as with the Palletline operational model."

Taking a more definitive stance is not the only reason behind the decision. "We have also watched with interest the technological developments unfolding at Palletline over the past two years. Access to this level of freight transparency in terms of consignment scanning, digital signature capture and the latest automatic service quality monitoring facilities can only enhance the service we offer to our customers," said Peter.

From the Palletline perspective, welcoming P F Whitehead into the fold was a positive move for the whole network. "This is a dynamic and well trusted logistics provider with a history of investment and achievement which parallels many of our existing member companies," stated Managing Director Kevin Buchanan. "We anticipate that their contribution will strengthen our service offering in the south east and further underline our reputation for quality and performance."
