An automotive component supplier called in Evolution when a costly aircraft charter movement they were incurring nightly, from Northern Italy to Birmingham, was investigated.
An automotive component supplier called in Evolution to investigate alternatives to a costly aircraft charter movement they were incurring nightly, from Northern Italy to Birmingham The final solution involved the supplier having the parts ready just 1 hour earlier at 21:30
This enabled us to access our direct night freighter leaving at midnight, arriving in the UK at 01:00.
The result was that the required 04:30 delivery time was still achieved, as it was with the aircraft charters, but saving thousands of pounds each night.
