Food storage specialist makes £1m investment

Grimsby-based ACS&T Logistics, which works with some of the leading names in chilled and frozen food production, has invested £1m in its fleet.

A subsidiary of the international group Camellia, ACS&T’s expertise in multi-temperature food logistics goes back nearly a century and its nationwide food storage and distribution network provides ambient, chilled and frozen integrated services to food manufacturers and wholesalers.

The company has invested in five Volvo tractor units and 13 temperature controlled trailers, which will operate out of the company’s depot in Scarborough.

Managing director Malcolm Johnstone said the investment underlined the company’s commitment to quality and its “dedication to providing flexible logistics solutions.”

He said: “Our investment underlines a drive to provide the highest quality of service while demonstrating a clear commitment to reducing CO2 emissions.”
