Despite a ‘hugely challenging year’, which saw Gregory Distribution Holdings forced to reduce its apprenticeship programme and run fewer vehicles in 2022, profit and turnover rose, aided by some high performing contracts and the integration of the Pollock businesses, the company has revealed, writes Carol Millett.
Gregory Distribution Holdings employs around 3,000 staff across 20 hubs stretching from Aberdeen to Truro. The company, which purchased Pollock Holdings and its subsidiaries Pollock (Scotrans) and Pollock Express in 2021, includes ARR Craib Transport and a joint venture with Hayton Coulthard.
Reporting its results for the year to 1 October 2022, Gregory Distribution Holdings revealed a jump in turnover to £335.6m (2021: £273.4m) and an 8% rise in pre-tax profit to £11.9m (2021: £11m).
