DX Group reopens 10 more former Tuffnells depots

DX Group has reopened 10 more Tuffnells depots after buying them from administrators which comes after the Slough based company rescued 15 Tuffnells Parcels Express sites.

Tuffnells hired administrators from Interpath Advisory after having intense pressure on their cash flow and failed to secure emergency funding.

DX Group took on 250 staff in June out of the 2,200 workers across 33 depots and the rest were made redundant.

DX chief executive Paul Ibbetson said: “These openings substantially increase our freight capability across the country, from the South of England, through the Midlands, Yorkshire, and into Scotland.

“They will provide the additional capacity we need to handle the volume growth that we are experiencing.

“They will also support our drive for further efficiencies, environmental and customer service benefits.

“Developing the depot network is a key component in delivering our continued growth plans, and we expect to be able to report on further openings over the coming months.”
