Fraserburgh, Scotland: Eden Farm Hulleys, part of the Kitwave Group, distributes frozen food, ice cream and chilled products to wholesalers from eight depots using 190 vehicles.
The Eden Farm Hulleys relationship with Gray & Adams started7 years ago with 18 refrigerated HGV bodies and seven trailers. Eden Farm commissioned two bespoke double-deck lifting deck trailers in 2018 with the latest version, accommodated 18 additional pallets in one journey, allowing Eden Farm to complete deliveries with fewer vehicles in less time.
Jason Brooksbank, group transport manager Eden Farm Hulleys said:We were thrilled with the new trailers, built entirely to our specification…one of the best on the market.”
The successful acquisition paved the way for the build of additional trailers and rigids as part of their replacement program with a keen focus on improved refrigeration options, while ensuring that their own ESG guidelines are met. As such, the reduction of refrigeration noise and the implementation of electric refrigeration options have been at the forefront of all new vehicle and trailer orders, Gray and Adams said.
Eden Farm Hulleys intends to replace a further 30 trucks and two additional trailers next year. “Gray & Adams have provided fantastic support over the years in delivering successful, bespoke solutions for our business. Their knowledge and expertise has been invaluable as they continue to work closely with our operation,” Brooksbank said.
