GIST

“Having worked with Ken Mallinson’s on an adhoc basis for the past 5yrs,they have proven to be a reliable partner in delivering the high standard of service we require for our customers.”

Ben Martin – Logistics Manager

COMPASS ENGINEERING

“Compass Eng. put their transport requirement to tender in May 2007 and Ken Mallinson Transport won the contract. Both parties have worked well together since that date delivering Structural Steel to various sites throughout the UK.  Both parties have worked closely and in a flexible manner, ensuring that the Haulage Framework Agreement has been fulfilled. As a result of the successful partnership between Compass and Mallinson the Framework Agreement was extended in September 2010”

Paul Hotchkiss

TECALEMIT

“As a company, Tecalemit garage equipment have been using Ken Mallinson & Sons for seven to eight years. When we informed them of our delivery and storage requirements the management could not do enough to help us achieve our objectives. Well trained staff whether they are behind the wheel delivering or in the office manning the phones have helped us procure many large contracts of our own, all with special requirements. Clean and efficient service along with good value does not do justice to the name of Ken Mallinson & Sons transport. We look forward to doing many more years of business with Mallinson’s as they are a hard company to beat on presentation”
