Everyone's at it: Direct To Consumer or DTC, and we can help!
Gone (or at least going) are the days where consumers would venture out in all weathers to visit physical stores, browse the goods, buy something, and take it home with them in the car - where the stores would have not just a showroom but a stock room out the back.
Instead, we've increasingly become a nation of internet shoppers. We've swapped the drudgery of walking around multiple stores to find what we want, and the hassle of finding somewhere to park, for the convenience of browsing virtual stores online and ordering for delivery from our sofas.
Online retail sales went up from £33 billion in 2012 to £106 billion in 2023 (£119 billion in 2021 thanks to Covid).
As a result, the logistics world has changed too.
Now, there's an increased need for small consignments of goods on pallets to be trunked around the country then broken down into smaller lots for speedy distribution to those internet shoppers.
Enter express pallet freight, with same day or next day delivery.
We offer this service through our membership of the Palletways Network. You can read more about it at the 🔗 in the comments.
It works like this: we collect your small consignment and take it to our depot. We then split it and add the components to a larger loads and take those to other Palletways members near your customers. They then deliver them.
It's a convenient and cost effective way for you to move anything from one to a few pallets quickly and easily, anywhere in the UK.
Whether you're a bathroom brand, garden centre, building materials supplier, office supplies company, or a supplier of homewares, we can help you with your DTC pallet freight needs 👍
