The group has invested in a 40,000 sq. ft site in Beckton, East London
A logistics specialist has expanded its presence in London with a major investment in a new site and vehicle fleet, creating 20 jobs across the capital.
Pallet Power Limited, part of the Parcel Power Logistics Limited Group, has launched a new palletised distribution service as it looks to strengthen its position in the logistics market. The move follows the company’s membership with national pallet network Pallet-Track.
The group has invested in a 40,000 sq. ft site in Beckton, East London, to provide a hub for pallet collection and delivery across Central and East London, including the E1, E14, EC and WC postcodes, as well as easy access to major transport links.
The expansion has created 20 roles across driving, warehouse, and office operations. To support the new service, Pallet Power has added 16 vehicles to its fleet, ranging from double deck trailers and tractor units to rigid vehicles and Luton vans.
All the new vehicles are ULEZ compliant, meet Direct Vision Standard requirements, and carry dual branding for Pallet Power Limited and Pallet-Track, highlighting the strength of the partnership.
Tzali April, Managing Director at Pallet Power Limited, said: “The Parcel Power group are well-established in both the refrigerated haulage and parcels sectors, so we are proud to be expanding our operation into palletised haulage.
“The new site and fleet will give us the flexibility we want to meet all our customers’ needs in the capital as we continue to grow our business.
“We had a choice of pallet networks and specifically chose Pallet-Track because of its ongoing growth, service performance, and investment in technology.
“It stood out to us as the national network and while we were previously able to offer our customers visibility and tracking on their freight, the innovative technology we have access to is enabling us to enhance the customer experience.
“As a business, we’re anticipating strong growth over the next 12 months and look forward to building our reputation in the pallet sector.”
Stuart Godman, CEO at Pallet-Track, added: “We are delighted to welcome Pallet Power Limited to the Pallet-Track family, and we are excited be able to support the team on their growth journey.
“The company’s values align very closely with those of our shareholder member network, and we are confident that they will deliver service excellence while collaborating with us to increase our presence in the capital. This is a fantastic partnership.”
