SIG NI IC ANT improvements in distribution have been achieved by Vine Products, Ltd., and Britvic, Ltd., after six weeks' joint operation of their road transport fleets. •
The two companies have switched almost completely from rail to road transport. Beaufoy's Wines and Spirits, Ltd., another company in the group, also use the new service. Nine area depots have been set up in important centres.
Head of the joint fleet—which comprises 105 commercial vehicles—is Mr. E. W. Russell, group transport manager, who is assisted by Mr. R. Figgins, formerly transport manager of Britvic and now distribution manager for the group.
