John Mitchell started the business in 1956 with one vehicle operating
from Grangemouth in central Scotland.
The business expanded over the years and in 1973, moved to a purpose
built 3 acre haulage depot with new offices, workshop and storage facilities
at Earls Road in Grangemouth.
Continued growth saw the acquisition of an additional site in
Grangemouth in 1990. This is our Thornbridge Depot - a 26 acre site with 150,000
square feet of covered warehousing and storage capacity for over one
thousand freight containers.
The haulage fleet also expanded over the years and now stands at around
100 vehicles.
The haulage operation is still based at Earls Road and a further seven
acres of adjacent land was purchased recently for container storage.
The sectors in which the company currently operate are:
- Road Haulage - Specialising in containers, chemicals and timber.
- Storage - General warehousing, container storage and specialist handling.
- Property Leasing - Office, warehouse, factory and open yard space.
The Company is still family owned and managed by Iain Mitchell -Managing
Director, and his sister Catherine Weir - Company Secretary.
