Pioneering pallet distribution since 1992

The UK's first pallet network, built on experience and innovation

Established in 1992, Palletline pioneered the UK's pallet network model, transforming the way palletised freight is transported nationwide. As proud shareholder members, Browns combines the strength of this established network with our own local expertise and commitment to customer service.

Today, Palletline handles approximately five million pallets annually, bringing together experienced, independent transport operators across the UK. Each member is responsible for delivering the high standards of service that businesses depend on, supported by a network designed for efficiency and consistency.

Palletline's multi-hub distribution model provides greater flexibility and resilience than traditional single-hub operations. By distributing freight through strategically located regional hubs, the network can manage changing volumes, reduce unnecessary movements and maintain reliable coverage across the country.

With continued investment in technology, infrastructure and operational standards, Palletline remains at the forefront of palletised distribution. For Browns customers, that means access to an established nationwide network with the capacity, expertise and infrastructure to support their changing transport requirements.
