LANCASHIRE OPERATOR Matthew Kibble Transport has seen its business grow by 30% during the past six months on the back of an acquisition and membership of the Fortec pallet network.
The Nelson-based firm took over local rival Prestons Fuel & Haulage last year, which doubled the size of its fleet and led to it joining Forted.
Boss Matthew Klbble explains: "Lancashire is an area of huge opportunity for an ambitious transport operator and we're ideally placed to take advantage of this. Our business has increased by more than 30% in the past six months and we're looking to maintain that growth."
