Published February 10, 2020

Neill & Brown has picked up two coveted logistics accolades at a national awards ceremony.

We were named Regional Member of the Year for Scotland and the North by logistics giant Pall-Ex who also gave our managing director Colin Moody a special Star Award for his services to the leading network of hauliers.

The annual event recognises and rewards SMEs and key players who are part of the Pall-Ex network and have made an outstanding contribution to its operation over the last 12 months.

Colin Moody, who received the Star Award for his dedication in helping out another member to deliver a critical consignment on time, said that collaboration and mutual support was key to the success of the network. “Pall-ex has recently established itself as the only pallet network to be owned by its members and senior management team, so we are all operating with an owner’s eye,” he said.

“Since Neill & Brown joined Pall-Ex, our customers have benefitted from the quality and dedication of its membership and our team has worked exceptionally hard in the lead-up to winning the Regional Member of the Year. We all feel very proud.”

Kevin Buchanan, Group CEO at Pall-Ex, said: “Each and every member of the Pall-Ex network has made a valuable contribution to our operations over the last 12 months.

“Neill & Brown has gone above and beyond to support the growth of the business and its fellow members, and we are delighted to award them with our Regional Member of the Year – Scotland and the North accolade.

“We are committed to retaining our crown as the UK’s number one network for quality and it is Pall-Ex members who share our ethos of high standards that will support our continued success.

“Our annual awards are a time to celebrate the achievements of those within our network who have gone the extra mile and we look forward to working with them during this year of great change at Pall-Ex.”
