Palletways has opened its new Benelux depot in Nijmegen, double the size of the previous facility and tailor made to suit the requirements of the network and its members. The new site offers the pallet network’s PORT system real time tracking system. Further warehousing space has also been incorporated,and the new depot will also host a Palletways Fulfilment service – the first outside the UK – with capacity for around 1,500 pallets.

Meanwhile, the pallet network said that had won a three year contract with The Yankee Candle Company for the distribution of its products across Europe. It follows the launch of the manufacturer’s Consumer Direct website in October 2012 and the purchase of a 170,000 sq ft headquarters in Avonmouth.
