Leading independent freight forwarding and logistics company, Davies Turner, has strengthened its commitment to the thriving UK, Ireland, and Morocco trade routes by expanding its fleet of KRONE hanging garment mega trailers.
The latest investment brings the company’s fleet of trailers dedicated to its Moroccan services to 35 high-specification units, reflecting rising demand in the fashion, retail, and automotive sectors.
The new trailers — supplied by KRONE — feature steel walls, roofs, and doors, offering superior protection against break-ins and stowaways.
All trailers are also fitted with GPS satellite tracking and remote door monitoring systems, ensuring real-time visibility and security throughout the transport process.
Serving the resurgent fashion and automotive sectors
Davies Turner has seen a significant revival in the UK-Morocco fashion trade, along with increasing volumes in automotive components, particularly related to electric vehicle production.
Its expanded fleet will support daily full load trailer services and groupage options for both imports and exports.
With a standard transit time of four to five days between Morocco and the UK/Ireland —reduced by 24 hours for express services and as little as 72 hours with speedy van transport — the services offer flexible solutions tailored to Davies Turner’s clients’ needs.
Strategic investments and on-the-ground expertise
Davies Turner’s long-standing presence in North Africa, particularly in Morocco, has seen it help establish a specialist load management organisation in Morocco, overseeing garment, carton, and commodity handling across factories, ports, and free zones, as well as supervising deliveries within key cities such as Tangier, Rabat/Sale, and Casablanca.
Expanding reach between Ireland and Morocco
In Ireland, the company’s services are vital to the aerospace industry, with round-trip and one-way transport of boxed and tilt trailers to and from Morocco.
This just-in-time logistics model, also applied in the automotive sector, reflects Davies Turner’s agility in high-demand, time-sensitive sectors.
Davies Turner’s air cargo and sea freight divisions have also expanded, supporting Morocco’s evolving supply chain needs.
With direct imports of raw materials into Morocco from the Far East, Europe, and Türkiye, and exports of finished goods to the USA and Western Europe, the company is helping clients shorten lead times and reduce costs.
Looking head
With this strategic investment in its trailer fleet and continued focus on operational excellence, Davies Turner is well-positioned to meet growing demand for its services in the UK, Ireland, and Morocco trade — offering reliable, secure, and efficient logistics solutions across some of Europe and North Africa’s most important trade lanes.
