M&H Carriers has opened a new delivery hub in Perth, which it said would give customers greater access to the whole of Scotland.
Managing director Fraser MacLean said the new depot, which consists of a 15,000sq.ft warehouse and one-and-a-half-acre yard, was ‘the gateway to the north’., and that the move would increase the fleet by more than 10 new vehicles and create new jobs.
M&H Carriers has taken on experienced logistics professional Stephen Jamieson to head up the hub.
The Perth site is M&H Carriers’ fifth delivery hub alongside Inverness, Dundee and Argyll and joins its HQ in Aberdeen, allowing the firm to increase its delivery capacity in Perth and Dundee and also its trunking capacity to all of its northern locations.
Operations are supported across Scotland with 14 satellite depots, allowing M&H to provide higher levels of service to rural and remote communities.
Fraser added that new depots have been opened in Invergordon, Broadford, Aviemore and Lochgilphead. He said: “Perth is the gateway to the north of Scotland, connecting strategic population centres like Aberdeen, Inverness and Oban – and remote and rural communities – to the rest of the country.
“Our new hub in Perth will give customers greater access to the whole country, whether they are moving pallets, freight and parcels north or south – strengthening our network and creating new opportunities for growth.”
