IN an industry where clients must have complete trust in their provider, C Butt Ltd ensures it has every possible procedure and accreditation in place to ensure its clients goods are transported and stored to the standard they would expect.
The Northampton-based firm has a long history of providing haulage and warehousing services, its modern operation employing some 200 people working at its depots across the UK and operating a fleet of 40 vehicles and 65 trailers, as well as at the company’s purpose-built 110,000 square foot warehouse on the Brackmills Industrial Estate.
The warehouse provides pallet space for customers in a range of sectors, and for those requiring anything from a couple of hundred pallets to customers needing thousands. The firm specialises in full logistics, dedicated and shared user warehousing and multimodal transport networks.
Last year, C Butt Ltd took the decision to move to BRC Global Standards for food distribution as it is seen widely as the leading standard in consumer protection, used by more than 25,000 certificated suppliers in more than 130 countries.
BRC Global Standards guarantees the standardisation of quality, safety and operational criteria and ensures that manufacturers and supply chains fulfil their legal obligations and provide protection for the end consumer, and are now often a fundamental requirement of leading retailers, manufacturers, logistics and food service organisations.
The accreditation is part of the firm’s strategy of continual improvements that will be a benefit for the whole business and not just those customers involved in food distribution. C Butt Ltd also offers NHS-accredited supply services.
The firm’s international strength comes from a partnership with Hyundai Merchant Marine (Europe) Ltd, which operates more than 110 state-of-the-art vessels, offers a worldwide global service network, diverse logistics facilities and leading IT shipping related systems, and employs highly trained professional staff with a focus on continual effort to provide a seamless delivery or collection process.
Operating from a number of strategic locations within the UK, the partnership’s portfolio of services includes dedicated and shared-user transport and warehousing operations with a joint approach to high service at reasonable cost.
Joint Managing Director Jonathan Butt said: “Our focus has always been on customer service, and putting in place strategic partnerships and guarantees that our customers can rely on.
“It’s important to us to show that we can be trusted to handle our customers goods at a service standard they want, providing an efficient and effective means of getting their valuable goods where they need to be, when they need to be there.”
