just one of the ancillary services offered by controlled:emperature distribution specialist Grocontinental, based n Whitchurch, Shropshire. Running 55 MAN and Daf 6x2 :rectors and 100 trailers means more than 1,000 tyres on the .oad and it doesn't take Carol Vorderman to realise that even a small saving on each one makes a significant difference to he bottom line.
Grocontinental has been in business for seven decades, ind for the past three it has had an internally managed tyre )olicy using a brand that shares the same initial letter. So a otal about-turn wasn't a whim, but Grocontinental has now ;igned up to an exclusive ATS Euromaster/Michelin deal. "It vas a difficult decision for us to make because of the length ff time we had worked with our previous supplier. But ATS Euromaster offered a range of additional benefits including I nationwide roadside assistance service and weekly fleet ;hecks to ensure our tyres remain in the optimum condition," ays joint managing director David Grocott.
Although he says the agreement is too new to place i precise figure on the savings, he is confident that a ignificant cost saving will be forthcoming.
