A transport company which moves up to 500 pallets around the Canterbury and Ashford areas each day has won an award.

The Salvatori Group, based in Aylesham, was named South East winner in the Palletways 2017 Sales Awards.

It helped the network of 110 freight companies move a record 5.4 million pallets last year.

Business development manager Carole Sutton said: “Winning this award is a fantastic way to end another successful year working with Palletways.

“We’re delighted to have won this award as it reflects the dedication and hard work of every member of staff at our depots.”

Palletways UK managing director Dave Walmsley said Salvatori had “been a top performer in their region over the past 12 months, setting an excellent example to the industry”.
