Stanley Wishart said: “IPP was one of our first customers and is now one of our biggest. It’s a very strong relationship and IPP are very good at recognising the service levels provided. They appreciate the efforts that go in to servicing their customers.”
In the last three years alone, Wishart Transport has increased the number of IPP pallets distributed by more than 100,000 annually.
James Goode, head of logistics at IPP, said: “Wishart Transport has the feel of a family-run business, which echoes the family business ethos of IPP. If there ever is a problem, then they come to us with solutions, more often than not actioned without our need for input.
“They currently typically carry 40 loads a week for IPP, including about 10 loads every week from the UK, and the reliability is fantastic.”
