MORE ON LINFOOD • I was very interested to read the article on Linfood and the centralisation of their warehousing.

I appreciate that the main thrust of the article was on the subject of centralisation. I would however like to point out a couple of inaccuracies in describing the transportation used by Linfood.
The first is that not one of the 39 trailers used by Linfood was built by Boalloy and therefore should not have been referred to as Tautliners. The trailers were in fact, 12.2m insulated curtain-sided trailers entirely designed and manufactured by CB COTTINGHAM, for perishable and dry goods loading, featuring a method of adding refrigeration and load dividing equipment when required.
The second inaccuracy is that the article credited the building of the trailers to Cottingham Bodybuilders of North Humberside. We are indeed based on North Humberside but are known as CB COTTINGHAM.
