DX has entered into an agreement with the administrators of Tuffnells Parcels Express Ltd, Interpath Advisory, for licences to occupy 13 former Tuffnells sites together with the freehold purchase of a further site. It has also agreed terms direct with a landlord for a long lease on a fifteenth site.
250 former employees of Tuffnells have been hired by DX which has secured business from over 550 former customers of Tuffnells which are being offered continuity of service on what it says are mutually agreeable commercial terms.
Paul Ibbetson, CEO, Dx (Group) plc said: “We are very pleased to have reached agreement over 15 former Tuffnells sites, including the outright purchase of a freehold site.
“This exciting development gives us significant additional capacity and will enable us to accelerate growth while also driving further operational efficiencies and maintaining our high service levels.
“We have already taken on a significant number of former Tuffnells employees and look forward to providing further employment opportunities.”
