• To meet fast expanding traffic Leicestershire Hauliers, the East Midland co-operative organization whose members operate some 800 vehicles, mostly tippers, is moving to new premises at Dunton Road, Broughton Astley, near Leicester (phone: Sutton Elms 716).
Turnover of the group increased from £80,000 to £120,000 in the last financial year. Mr. Ray Cross, director of Leicestershire Hauliers, told CM last week that the results for the first half of the current year were very satisfactory.
Two member firms, Enderby Transport and Isaacs of Coalville, would work closely together at the group headquarters, said Mr. Cross, and there were plans to build a 16,000 sq. ft. warehouse and to extend the maintenance facilities at the depot. Possibly some group members' vehicles would be serviced at Broughton Astley. The move takes effect from March 29.
