LONGBURN NEW TRANSPORT DEPOT
17 September saw the official opening of our new transport cross-dock facility at Longburn, with Grant Smith, Mayor of Palmerston North, doing the honours.
The two+ year project was a culmination of long hours, passionate mahi and excellent collaboration with our key development partners.
The multi-million-dollar state of the art facility is designed with temperature-control, sustainability, operational efficiency and health and safety in mind.
With Hall’s large Storage facility and Manawatu Inland Port located at Longburn already, the addition of this Transport facility secures Hall’s in the Manawatu region as provider of a vast range of cold chain logistics services for our customers.
An import and export hub for chilled and frozen products, the site is connected directly to a national transport network, providing both a rail and road gateway to all of New Zealand ports.
Hall’s can provide a 1-stop-shop from origin-to-port destination, or port destination to unique customer delivery points around New Zealand.
We provide container transport, on-power container storage, devanning/vanning, blast freezing, storage, pick and pack, and delivery to customers around New Zealand.
