“Tesco’s distribution network is one of the largest in the UK and plays an important role in our efforts to become net zero in our own operations by 2035. We’ve already made progress by starting our switch to electric home delivery vans and rolling out electric vehicles charging points for our customers. I’m excited that Tesco can also lead the way in electric haulage innovation, helping to tackle this last source of road transport emissions with the support of FSEW.”

“We all want to do what we can for the environment so we’re proud that Magor and Wales was chosen to be the first location to use these zero emissions lorries. It’s always exciting to get new kit and we can’t wait to try these lorries out in our busy operation.”

“Blackwood Engineering have been in partnership with FSEW for 14 years. Both businesses have grown together throughout this time and faced many challenges and changes in Supply Chain operations. Blackwood Engineering along with many of their customers are looking at ways to reduce their carbon footprint and contribute to a greener future so the fact that FSEW are among the first freight forwarders in the UK to purchase and put into operation their electric trucks has been an excellent contribution to this initiative. FSEW ship and freight around 30 TEU’s per week into the UK for Blackwood Engineering so being able to do this with the use of electric trucks has really enabled us to contribute to a cleaner environment.”
