Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• Swift Service has won two 12-month warehousing, trunking and delivery contracts for Rockware Glass. Under the deals, worth £1.25 million, Swift will transport, store and deliver glass containers in Scotland and the North-west.

The company is taking on 12 extra staff for the contracts and will be using nine 38-tonne Volvos with 12-metre Tautliner trailers.

Under the Scottish contract goods will be trunked in bulk from production centres in Irvine, Knottingley in West Yorkshire and Wheatley, Dohcaster, to Swift's 10,000m2 depot at Motherwell to await call

offs from its customers.

In the North-west the 9,290m2 depot at Trafford Park will supply storage space supported by Swift fleets at Manchester and Wakefield.

Goods will be taken from Rockware sites in West Yorkshire and stored for delivery to food and drink manufacturers in the North-west.
