Supply chain specialist takes over temperature controlled distribution operator

Supply chain specialist takes over temperature controlled distribution operator

 

G&S International based in Scotland is a key operator in transport, particularly in the chill and perishables sector, operating in the UK, Holland and Spain.

 

Taking over the G&S operations are a good strategic fit with business logistic operator’s existing presence in the temperature controlled distribution sector both in the UK and continental Europe, Gist said.

 

G&S International employees will transfer to Gist. And assets including trucks, IT and warehousing have also been purchased by Gist.

 

Business expansion welcomed

 

George Brown, G&S International managing director, said: “We are delighted that Gist has taken over the business. The combination of their supply chain expertise with their considered business approach, and genuine attitude towards people, make them a perfect fit with our business ethics. We know that our customers will be given an excellent service and thrive in their relationship with Gist going forward.”

 

Martin Gwynn, Gist chief executive, said: “We are delighted to have taken over G&S International and are committed to the continuing provision of the already strong customer service levels being experienced. The addition of the G&S business further strengthens our position as one of the leading chill logistics specialists and furthermore demonstrates our ongoing commitment to further grow in this exciting sector.”
