X2 have been working successfully for a discount retailer for just over a year now. Initially at one depot the fleet has quadrupled in size and is now operating 24 hours a day over seven days a week out of two depots and about to commence operations out of depot number three as a result of consistent service levels and competitive pricing.
Our drivers load themselves with ambient, chilled and frozen product in dual compartment fridge trailers making deliveries to manned and unmanned stores across the store estate. Drivers place product into the correct chambers in the store and are responsible for clearing waste and recycling and on return to the depot unloading and sorting the various recycling elements.
This relationship very well demonstrated the effectiveness of our twin core objectives of building our own fleet capabilities for dedicated customers whilst supporting ad hoc and seasonal requirements with our 4PL managed transport business.
We believe this flexibility and scalability will result in X2 supporting this customer at a number of other sites across the UK.
