A new warehouse on wheels concept launched by a North Lincolnshire timber specialist is about to be expanded, creating jobs and cutting miles.
The roll-out by New Holland-based Arbor Forest Products, the UK’s leading independent importer and processor, is putting sustainability at the heart of its growing fleet of new-look lorries, while initiating a recruitment drive to build a bigger transportation team. Agency workers will also become permanent as it shores up its distribution.
Arbor, a £125 million turnover firm, supplies 300,000 cubic metres of timber annually from its dedicated 90-acre site, thought to be the largest terminal and processing facility in the UK.
