Our new 7.5t Mitsubishi Fuso will be joining our Palletforce Network fleet to carry out small taillift deliveries & collections.

And here it is! Presenting the finished Willmotts double deck trailer ready to be collected to join our pallet network fleet.

Many of our employees have served in the forces previously, before transferring their skills to the transport industry.

This week we held a training session at our Quarry Way site for Shepton Mallet Fire Station to have the opportunity for familiarisation around Class 1 LGV vehicles.

Recently we had a photoshoot on behalf of Mercedes-Benz, photographing 3 of our 5 brand new Mercedes-Benz trucks at our site in Westfield.

Congratulations to Trevor Southwell, on passing his Transport Manager Certificate of Professional Competence.

The Willmotts feature from the August issue of Trucking magazine is now available to access online via PDF!

Willmotts are delighted to support The Lily Foundation with two striking new trailers which will be out and about on the roads of Britain as part of the Willmotts' fleet during the next few years.

Having a good handle on the management of your warehouse inventory and stock levels is important for any retail business. Optimising and streamlining your inventory can provide you with a multitude of cost-saving benefits, from a reduction in logistics and storage costs, to revenue uplift from less lost sales orders on old stock. Managing your warehouse inventory with your logistics provider can also help you plan for sales and seasonal products, understand consumer demands and manage your stock orders.

With the new year approaching, now is the ideal time for business owners to audit their logistics processes, get clear on their business needs and goals for the next year, and how their logistics provider can help achieve these goals. To help you streamline your supply chain, save time and reduce costs, we compiled the top three considerations when choosing a warehousing and pick & pack facility for your retail business in 2021.

Logistics-related costs and managing your supply chain can often be a headache for many business owners. However, as it is one of the key variables that impacts your bottom line and how your business runs, it’s important to know which areas you can cut corners on and which areas to invest in to streamline your logistics needs.

The current global consumer climate is constantly evolving, and with this, the needs and priorities of your logistics and supply chain provider should adapt as well to best cater to your customers. In order to be your customers’ number one choice, all aspects of your supply chain, from production to distribution, should have your customers’ goals and current trends in mind.

Following the Prime Minister’s announcement on Monday 23rd March, we wanted to reassure our customers who continue to trade during such difficult times that we are here to support you and to keep the supply chain flowing.

Willmotts have joined with our Palletforce colleagues and are collaborating with an initiative headed by the Association of Pallet Networks (APN) to provide services for emergency and food supplies.

During these unprecedented times, we are putting in every effort to maintain service levels and to ensure our activities minimise further spread of the virus.

In common with all other businesses, we have been revising our policy on company procedures in line with the latest Government guidelines. This will be updated regularly as appropriate.
