Company History
Like everyone, we have a story. Speed originally was started in 2000 and specialised in the rural distribution and collection of parcels, based in Welshpool. Created with the aim of being the “parcel distribution hub of Wales”, it quickly expanded.
In 2007, the appointment of a new Business Development Manager led to a new vision for Speed – to expand the services provided to include pallet delivery. In April 2008, Speed joined Palletways UK Ltd, the leading overnight palletised freight distributor in Europe. Our exemplary success led to attainment of Palletways Platinum Partner status, as well as management restructuring, and an improved service across the board.
Soon a new path and vision was envisaged – to be “The Complete Carrier”. That is, to have access to a plethora of distribution options in order to carry a complete variety of freight. Freight volumes being sent from our area increased exponentially with local customer sales, and Speed began to acquire new contracts with national and international corporate partners. This led to a depot expansion and significant increase in turnover and a fresh vision.
In April 2010, ownership of Speed was transferred from SpeedDistribution.co.uk Ltd to NP Vehicle Hire Ltd. This has brought brand new shareholders, a new vision and new priorities. The company has a fresh new corporate identity and has secured contracts with Norbert Dentressangle and Palletforce.
This is the dawn of a new era for Speed, an all new beginning. And here we are now.
