Palletised delivery network Palletforce has announced it is to offer a global distribution service connecting its members to worldwide markets.

One of the main focuses of this new service is the markets of Asia. EmergeVest has invested in this service Palletforce is offering, which is said to be the first of its kind in the sector.

The new Palletforce Asia Services provide the 100 members of the network with fast and competitive access to the Tiger economies of Asia. The focus is on growing the China / Asian markets, enabling the members to get a toehold in China.

“With our investment in this exclusive new service, Palletforce is connecting its members to many exciting economies and markets – providing the platform to enable growth and fuel expansion,” says Michael Conroy, chief executive officer, Palletforce. “This is unique in the marketplace and gives our members exclusive access to offer a new worldwide service to their customers by combining a global reach with local knowledge and expertise on the ground.

“We are particularly excited by the huge opportunities that China and the Far East offers for our sector, and Palletforce Asia Services will provide a gateway for our members to establish themselves in these growing markets.

“We understand it can be a daunting prospect, which is why we are delighted to be working with Allport Cargo Services – an established Palletforce member. With over 50 years’ experience they are the experts in their field and will provide fellow members with all the support they need.”
