Welcoming Palletline to Distribution House
We were thrilled to recently welcome the Palletline leadership team to Distribution House for the very first time, as our teams came together to mark Browns' historic new site development, and celebrate our long-standing partnership.
Palletline, the UK's first premium palletised freight distribution company, revolutionised the way pallets are transported, with a forward-thinking approach and development of the "hub-and-spoke" distribution method.
Proud shareholding members of the Network since 1995, Browns' £9 million investment marks the latest step in our ground-breaking growth plan, and will enable us to continue to increase service scope, freight volume, efficiency, and move forward with key sustainability plans.
Managing Director, David Brown Jnr commented:
"It was thoroughly rewarding to welcome the Palletline team to Distribution House, and provide some insight into how the development strengthens Browns" position as innovators and industry leaders; unlocking potential and the capacity to evolve service scope and efficiency.
Impressed by the site's carefully executed design, the Palletline team, including Group Managing Director Graham Leitch, were given a full tour of our new facilities and met with members of the team to learn their thoughts on the move.
We'd like to say a huge thank you to Palletline for taking the time to visit us in our new home!
