Nantwich firm Boughey Distribution has been shortlisted for a major honour in the 34th Motor Transport Awards \u2013 the road transport industry\u2019s “Oscars”.<\/p>\n

The Haulier of the Year is the most coveted award of the year and recognises the most outstanding transport company.<\/p>\n

The flagship annual awards will be staged in November at The Grosvenor House Hotel, London.<\/p>\n

Boughey, based off the A51 in Wardle, will join two other finalists for the top award which was judged by an independent panel of experts drawn from the industry.<\/p>\n

The finalists\u2019 submissions were assessed for legal compliance, business success, high operational standards, staff development, health and safety; environment and quality initiatives.<\/p>\n

It is first time Boughey<\/a> has entered the Motor Transport Awards.<\/p>\n

Managing Director Keith Forster said being on the shortlist is all about the dedication of the company\u2019s employees.<\/p>\n

“We are all thrilled to have made the shortlist of what is most definitely the ultimate accolade in our industry.<\/p>\n

“In spite of over 55 years of trading, we have been somewhat under the radar in terms of our success.<\/p>\n

“While we are very proud of our business success, the high standards we operate across our company and the long-standing relationships we have with our customers, being shortlisted is all about the great team of people who work here.<\/p>\n

“This includes drivers, warehouse operatives and the behind-the-scenes teams who keep everything moving 24\/7.<\/p>\n

“We will all be keeping our fingers-crossed for good news when the awards ceremony takes place in November.”<\/p>\n

Part of the NWF Group, the company was established in 1964 and operates a fleet of 120 vehicles and 250 trailers.<\/p>\n

Boughey works with some of the UK\u2019s major food industry brands, providing storage and distribution services.<\/p>\n

The firm employs 600 people with 90% of employees living within a 10-mile radius of its headquarters in Wardle.<\/p>\n

During the Covid-19 crisis, the team at Boughey has been managing unprecedented demand to keep food supplies moving around the country, with an additional 50 truck-loads leaving its base each day.<\/p>\n

This month, Boughey will open a new state-of-the-art warehouse in Crewe which will increase the company\u2019s overall storage capacity from 100,000 to 137,000 pallet spaces.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
