Bulmers signs agreement with EWS
BULMERS LOGISTICS has won a contract with rail-freight operator EWS to support its intermodal operations, helping its customers to reduce road miles and their carbon footprints.
The deal will allow EWS Network to collect and deliver containers from customers wherever they are based in Britain. It also means EWS can "rapidly increase" its intermodal operations.
EWS says it expects to operate 50 intermodal trains a day in 2008, and Bulmers is needed to support this expansion.
Bulmers commercial director, Andrew SpenceWolrich, adds: With a fleet of more than 300 trucks, Bulmers Logistics has the capacity to support EWS Network's intermodal customers as they seek to reduce road miles and their carbon footprints by using road and rail haulage."
