Celebrating a Year of Cold Chain Growth

In the fast-paced world of cold chain logistics, the right partnership can be the driving force behind transformative growth and success.

Australian refrigerated transport solutions business Eurocold prides itself on its ability to form long-term relationships with its clients, tailoring its fleet solutions to best drive business growth.

One of the standout examples of this is its recent partnership with Knighton, a cold storage and transport company that has seen significant expansion over the past year.

Knighton has extended its reach from the Central Coast to Greater New South Wales, fueled by the opening of a new 2,500-square metre cold storage facility.

This facility, which holds as much as 2,500 pallets of goods, has allowed Knighton to offer full pallet delivery services with a focus on serving food wholesalers across NSW.

Supporting this rapid expansion has been Eurocold’s fleet solutions, enabling Knighton to grow their services without compromising on efficiency or quality.

“Eurocold has been a game-changer for us,” says Knighton Operations Manager Ashley Knighton.

“Their trucks have been instrumental in allowing us to expand our operations and offer more services to our clients. Without Eurocold, we simply wouldn’t have been able to scale up as quickly and efficiently as we have.”

A key element of the partnership between Eurocold and Knighton is the quality and reliability of Eurocold’s fleet.

While advanced temperature control and tracking technology are standard features, it’s the trucks’ overall performance and dependability that have made the biggest impact.

Eurocold delivers trucks that are not only reliable but also adaptable, helping clients like Knighton manage their evolving needs and business growth with confidence.

For Knighton, Eurocold’s trucks have improved service quality by offering consistent, efficient performance, allowing them to meet tight delivery schedules and comply with strict food safety standards.

“The trucks Eurocold provides are top-notch,” Ashley says.

“Our drivers have commented on how comfortable and reliable they are, which is crucial when you’re handling delicate, time-sensitive deliveries.”

However, what Ashley values most in the partnership is Eurocold’s full service and repair offerings, which ensures smooth operations without the stress of unexpected downtime.

“The comprehensive service and repair support that Eurocold provides is truly invaluable. It’s a critical aspect of our partnership because it allows us to operate without disruption.

“Knowing that if an issue arises, Eurocold will resolve it promptly gives me the confidence to focus on growing our business.”

In addition to providing high-quality trucks, Eurocold’s flexibility and quick response times have been essential in supporting Knighton’s continued growth, ensuring their fleet needs are met as their operations expand.

Building a partnership

What distinguishes Eurocold is its commitment to providing personalised, hands-on service.

Ernesto, Eurocold’s Development Manager for NSW, has been pivotal in ensuring that Knighton’s fleet needs are met consistently. His dedication and involvement have been crucial in helping Knighton manage its fleet expansion smoothly and efficiently.

“Ernesto has been an incredible asset to our business,” Ashley says.

“He understands what we need and is always there to make sure we get the trucks and the support we need, exactly when we need it. Having that kind of personal touch is rare, and it’s made a huge difference in how smoothly we’ve been able to grow.”

Looking ahead, Ashley emphasised that the long-term relationship between Knighton and Eurocold will continue to play a crucial role in their success.

“We’re looking at even more growth in the future, and having Eurocold by our side is going to be key.

“The relationship we’ve built with them isn’t just about the trucks – it’s about trust, reliability, and knowing that we have a partner who’s just as invested in our success as we are.”

As Knighton continues to expand, Eurocold remains a critical partner, providing the fleet solutions and support needed to help the company achieve its long-term goals.

From reliable, custom-built trucks to expert fleet management, Eurocold’s commitment to Knighton’s success is clear.

For businesses seeking a reliable partner in refrigerated transport, the collaboration between Eurocold and Knighton is a powerful example of how strategic partnerships can drive growth and efficiency.

“We couldn’t have achieved the success we have without Eurocold,” Ashley says.

“And I’m confident that our partnership will be just as essential to our future as it has been to our past.”
