Oakland International is to launch a new division, Oakland Distribution, in a move designed to give complete supply chain control on a number of its delivery destinations.
Distribution manager Luke Attwell said: “With the opening of Oakland Distribution we have the ability to offer greater destination reach and improved availability for our customers.”
The company operates a fleet ranging from 44 tonnes artics and 26 tonne rigids to vans, all with multi-temperature capability. It offers contract packing, storage, picking, tempering and supports retail, convenience, discount, wholesale and food service markets via hubs and facilities in the UK, Ireland and an overseas partner in Spain.
