Logistics operator PEKAES has expanded its offer to include the handling of shipments that require transport at above-zero temperatures during the winter season.
In recent months, PEKAES has recorded a significant increase in shipment volumes, mainly in the LTL (less-than-truckload) transport segment. Growing interest in this form of transport and increasingly higher customer expectations regarding comprehensive logistics services have prompted PEKAES to introduce the handling of shipments requiring above-zero temperatures into its offer. The implementation of the new product was preceded by adapting the existing logistics infrastructure and IT systems to the requirements applicable to such projects.
As part of the new service, PEKAES will transport materials and goods whose transport is permitted only at temperatures above 0°C. This service, aimed primarily at companies in the chemical and food industries, which hold an important position in the company’s client portfolio, is available during the winter period, customarily accepted from November 1 to March 31.
– We strive for the constant development of all products we offer, including domestic LTL. We monitor the market and react to changes occurring within it on an ongoing basis. The new service is a reflection of our customers’ needs, especially during the winter season, and its introduction was preceded by appropriate changes to our infrastructure. We do not rule out that in the future, the product will also be available in international exchange. We are currently exploring its potential outside our country – informs Łukasz Sadowski, Director of Domestic LTL, PEKAES SA.
