NR EVANS AND Son has been granted permission to base 16 vehicles and the same number of trailers at a new site in Dove Valley Park, Foston, Derby.
The company, which specialises in transporting frozen, ambient and multi-temperature goods for customers such as Tesco and Morrisons, says it is opening the facility in an effort to strengthen its presence in the Midlands.
It will mainly use the Foston facility to deliver milk for Dairy Crest to Morrisons supermarkets.
NR Evans is based in Cross Hands, Carmarthenshire, and has regional depots in Bedfordshire, Anglesey, East Yorkshire, Dumfries and Galloway and Aldridge, West Midlands.
Neil Evans, MD at NR Evans, says: “The Derby site will complement our other depot in the Midlands in Aldridge and strengthen our presence in the area. We have had a profitable last couple of years and are now investing and looking forward to the future.” NR Evans recently added 18 new Mercedes-Benz Actros tractors to its 120-strong fleet.
