UK Multimodal Operator to Launch Separate Irish Company
4th October 2017
UK multimodal logistics operator Collett has launched a new subsidiary company in the Irish Republic – Collett (Ireland) Ltd.
Collett have been operating across UK, Ireland and Europe for over 40 years, servicing clients transport requirements with its own specialist vehicles and trailers as and when required, and furthermore with freight forwarding services, using a network of preferred sub-contractors.
“Due to increased volumes and planned workload that is anticipated, along with successfully winning orders for projects in the Irish market, the time is right to stretch our arms across the Irish Sea and open our own Irish Company,” said Collett in a statement. “This demonstrates our commitment to the Irish market and to build stronger ties with our clients and suppliers.”
The company is registered in the Irish republic, in order to satisfy Irish Tax and fiscal regulations and has recently been granted a ‘Road Transport Operator Licence’ by the Department of Transport in Ireland to operate legally within the province and avoid falling foul of the EU cabotage regulations.
