A Leicester-based logistics specialist has secured a significant five-year contract worth £5 million with the Midlands’ leading supplier of cleaning and hygiene products, Ramon Hygiene.

Translink Express Logistics Ltd will continue to provide flexible and reliable logistics services across the UK, building on a successful partnership that began in 2007.

A key factor in the long-standing relationship is Translink Express’ membership of the Pallet-Track network, renowned for delivering high-quality services through its extensive network of Shareholder Members.

Currently, the Narborough-based firm ships between 100 and 150 fully tracked pallets daily to destinations nationwide, including major supermarkets, wholesalers, and distribution centres.

Since the partnership began, Translink Express has also supplied comprehensive warehousing solutions for Ramon Hygiene’s extensive product range.

The company, a family-owned business founded in 1987, started as a small parcel delivery operation with just one vehicle and driver.

In addition to its Narborough base, Translink Express operates a second storage and distribution facility in Whetstone, covering 62,000 square feet.

John Greenwood, director at Ramon Hygiene, which is also based in Leicester, commented: “We are proud to call ourselves a community-spirited company and to work in partnership with local businesses like Translink Express.

“As a growing business, it is reassuring that they continue to provide us with excellent service from end to end.

“We have built a strong working relationship over the last 17 years, and we know we can trust the team with providing our customers with a reliable and cost-effective service.”

Chris Hobbis, director at Translink Express Logistics, said: “Our extensive UK coverage, facilitated by our partnership with Pallet-Track, ensures that we can deliver efficiently and effectively to any destination on behalf of Ramon Hygiene.

“Over the years, we have developed a profound understanding of their business, its needs, and the team’s expectations, which has been instrumental in fostering a mutually beneficial working dynamic.

“This is the largest contract in Translink’s history and enables us to tailor our services effectively, ensuring we consistently meet and exceed Ramon’s expectations.

“The deal solidifies a committed future for both of our companies, ensuring a more stable and prosperous relationship than ever before.

“We look forward to continuing our successful partnership, while driving mutual growth and success.”
