For the financial year to 30 April 2006 the firm reported a 13% hike in turnover to £42.4m, but a fall in pre-tax profits from £240,400 to £208,300. • Rising fuel and utility prices, and the end of a short-term contract, resulted in lower pretax profits for Clipper Group.

In the year to 30 April 2006 the logistics firm reported pretax profits of £876,600, down from £1.9m the previous year. Turnover rose 12% to £28.8m. • DTS Logistics saw pre-tax profits fall from £1.26m to £778,831 in the financial year to 30 April 2006, although its turnover rose from £38m to £43.9m. The firm attributes this to heavy investment in human and other resources to build new business streams.
