Why Woodsides?

With over 50 years in the industry, we have grown organically to become one of the leading logistics firms across the UK and Ireland. More and more businesses are choosing us as their preferred partner in supply chain logistics.

Joined Up Logistics

With five business divisions forming the Woodside Group of services, we can support you across every stage of your supply chain. From transporting the raw materials for manufacturing, to distributing the finished goods throughout the UK and Ireland and globally via our freight forwarding service (Woodside Global), we are with you at every stage of your product life-cycle.

For example, through our bulk tanker division (Woodside Tankfreight), we deliver flour to bread manufacturers and then transport the finished loaves of bread for onward distribution (via Woodside Distribution or Woodside Haulage). We also transport the raw ingredients of sugar, glucose and CO2 for the manufacturing of cider, and then transport the cider in its final state across the UK and Ireland. 

At our Ballynure site, we also provide BRC AA graded warehousing, offering an additional storage and fulfilment service for our customers. 

Environmental Sustainability

Reducing our impact on the environment is ingrained across all areas of the business. Our focus is to continuously address areas for improvement as a means to protect, conserve and enhance the environment around us.

Carbon Offsetting Initiatives

To reduce our impact on the environment, we are working to offset CO2 emissions through a variety of tree planting initiatives across the UK and Ireland.

Refill

We have joined the Refillution by supplying staff with reusable drinking bottles to help cut back on plastic waste. Through the Refill scheme, staff can hydrate for free on the go, by filling their bottles with tap water across a wide range of UK locations.

Sustainable Transport

We have invested in a modern fleet of trucks - these are Euro 6 compliant (the latest directive set by the European Union to help reduce the level of harmful pollutants produced by new vehicles). In addition, we have a CNG fuelled truck, with two LNG trucks purchased for delivery.

Standards and Accreditations

We adhere to a range of health & safety, environmental and quality standards. Compliance is crucial to ensure that we protect the safety of our employees, customers and members of the public, reduce our impact on the environment and deliver high levels of customer service at all times.

Training and development doesn't just focus on our office-based staff, our drivers receive 35 hours of periodic training which they must complete every 5 years. 

  • Drivers are supported by our team of dedicated driver trainers

Technology

Investment in the latest technology allows us to provide a real-time system for tracking and greater efficiencies for reporting and invoicing.

Our Traffic Management System (TMS) is at the core of our activities. It interfaces with all other systems, including vehicle GPS, shipping companies, 3rd party customer systems and invoicing. We can provide bespoke reports on all activity within our TMS.
