Irish food forwarder invests in new trailers
Virginia International Logistics, based in Maghera, Ireland, has added a new trailer from manufacturer Ekeri to its fleet. Specialising in food products, F.M.C.G, electronics, manufacturing and pharma products, the family-owned business operates every day of the year between Ireland, the UK and throughout Europe.
120 trucks and 400 trailers are supported by three warehousing facilities in Ireland and a forwarding hub in Tamworth, England. Much of the cargo handled by Virginia Logistics is of high value, says the company, and certain routes are prone to migrants attempting to board vehicles as they pass through ferry terminals. Both these factors pointed towards the Ekeri trailer because of the possibility for secure and flexible loading. (ben)
