Logistics firm Pall-Ex is reaping the benefits of working with one North Staffordshire's fastest-growing businesses.
The company, which has its central 海角视频 hub in Leicestershire, has seen its account grow year-on-year after taking on Tile Mountain's distribution in 2013.
Each year, Pall-Ex transports almost 35,000 pallets of tiles for the Stoke-on-Trent company - which also owns Tons of Tiles and Capital Tiles.
The partnership has led to additional volume for Pall-Ex and its nationwide network of SMEs after it was able to identify how smaller, centrally packaged pallets could reduce the risk of damage to fragile goods.
Pall-Ex has also introduced the MyNexus software which allows customers to track their deliveries.
Jeremy Harris, managing director at Tile Mountain, said: "Tile Mountain chose the network based on price, service levels, reach and ability to do both B2B and B2C deliveries.
“As an online retailer, successful transportation of goods to the customer is a high priority for us, so the measures Pall-Ex has advised ensure we’re all working to actively reduce the risk of damages."
Jeremy added: “At a time where customers expect to know where their order is, what time their order is being delivered and who will be delivering the goods, Pall-Ex is providing customers with far greater clarity."
