Introduction
It’s often said that it’s during the toughest times that we truly discover who we are. EFC (UK) LTD, a leading Third Party Logistics provider (3PL), is a perfect example of this statement. The company’s story, which recently grabbed the attention of the Manchester Evening News, is one of determination, resilience, and innovation even in the face of a global crisis like the COVID-19 pandemic.
Weathering the Storm
EFC (UK) LTD, with its wide-ranging services in the warehousing, eCommerce Fulfilment and Pallet Storage, had already earned a sterling reputation both locally and internationally. When the pandemic threatened to disrupt operations, the company chose not to be knocked off the course. Instead, we took a daring step under the leadership of Adeel Ashraf (Director of MSL UK Ltd): a major relocation from Oldham to Trafford Park.
The relocation involved moving over 15,000 pallets of goods while continuing to deliver 3PL services to our Valued customers. This was a daunting task, but EFC’s team rose to the challenge. Our Team put in extra hours and leveraged their expertise to ensure a smooth transition. This challenging period not only reinforced our team member’s problem-solving abilities but also instilled a newfound sense of resilience within the team.
This strategic move provided the company with additional space for expansion but also presented new opportunities. The new location, being closer to major transport routes, further improved the company’s logistics capabilities.
