130 Years' Experience
The Bartholomews Group has been involved in the handling, storage and transportation of goods for over 130 years. It was the expertise gleaned from this extensive history that led us to set up Bartholomews Specialist Distribution in 1978 to work in partnership with our customers.
Room for Growth
With a storage capacity of over 10,000 pallet spaces, Bartholomews offers a flexible and scalable solution to their customers. This gives Bartholomews the ability to grow and adapt their services in line with their customers' growth and changing requirements.
Financially Strong
With Group net assets of close to £20m, you can have confidence Bartholomews is based on a very sound financial footing – a key consideration in choosing any potential partner.
Stock Control
Bartholomews’ warehouse management system, Microsoft Dynamics AX, provides powerful stock control functionality, traceability and scalability, as well as automated reporting and the ability to handle FIFO (first in first out) and FEFO (first expired first out).
Flexible
A 24-hour working operation, five days a week, provides Bartholomews with additional flexibility and resources to react at short notice to the requirements of the retail industry and the consequent pressure on customers.
End to End
In combination with our sister company, Churchill Freight Services, and partnerships with select freight forwarders and delivery agents, Bartholomews can provide a full end-to-end solution.
