The Directors of Hall’s Refrigerated Transport announced that they have taken a 51% interest in the Goodfellow Group company Easy Logistics.

The investment creates a New Zealand wide temperature controlled transport, storage and logistics company that will allow the consolidated entity to offer a fully integrated temperature controlled supply chain solution to customers needing such service within Auckland.

The Board’s of both companies agree that there are tremendous synergies associated with this partnership as it harnesses the strengths of Hall’s transportation which consists of 11 regional depots, 250 trucks & trailers and 100 rail intermodal units with Easy Logistics who hold number two position in the Auckland cold storage market with 10,000 pallets of cold storage and 12,000 pallets of ambient.

CEO for Hall’s Alan Pearson stated “We are excited by this investment as it allows Hall’s to realise a key action of our Strategic Plan to combine our temperature controlled transport capability with cold storage. A Greenfields investment would have been time consuming, costly and introduced additional capacity into a market that is already well served.  Easy Logistics are the number two player in the Auckland cold storage market, however previously lacked the transport feeder assets and capability to assist their storage service offering to customers. Both New Zealand owned and operated companies will benefit from this partnership.”

I am sure all employees will see this investment as a positive action in the growth of our company.

    Hall's made the decision to make substantial investment in Temperature Monitoring, GPS Satellite Navigational and Electronic Surveillance Technology (TEMPTS) across its entire fleet over three stages.  This investment compliments Hall's previous investments in state of the art Cold Storage depots, a modern transport fleet, DriveCam technology and Intermodal equipment.

    Management and the Board both agree that this technology will allow Hall's to make an improvement in the service offered to its many valuable customers.  Some of the benefits will be:

    1. Reduced customer claims as the customers product will be monitored along the entire journey with predetermined set points estabilished to inform operational staff of any variance for immediate corrective action.
    2. Improved security as door openings and the location are completely monitored and recorded.
    3. Complete temperature monitoring.
    4. GPS satellite navigation that will allow operations to respond to any customer enquiry about product whereabouts and ETA.
    5. Fuel monitoring.

    In addition to this, there will be a number of benefits that accumulate to Hall's operations in terms of monitoring drive fatigue, truck speed, drivers hours and door openings.

    Hall's CEO, Alan Pearson, stated "That Hall's embrace of this technology will completely fit the current service levels of refrigerated transport in New Zealand to a new level.  Hall's will be the largest refigerated fleet owner of such technology across Australasia and will address past concerns on product monitoring, security and surveillance.  This technology will be especially beneficial on our intermodal units transported on rail and Interisland ferries as Hall's operational staff will monitor the customers product at all stages, including the middle of the Cook Strait.  I am delighted that the Board has endorsed the executive recommendation to commit to such technology in order to provide our many valuable customers with a service offering that is arguabley the best in the world.  The technology partner chosen was after many hours of research, pilot programs and benchmarking of the best international technology available as reviewed and investigated at the Hannover Truck Show".

    The units themselves are currently being installed on a number of trailers and intermodal units and will be rolled out on a routine basis.
