YDL Christmas

Merry Christmas from the YDL Team

Christmas is an incredibly busy period for logistics for both providers and our customers. Now that the presents are sold and delivered, the YDL team sincerely hopes you enjoy your holidays!

This year has presented unprecedented challenges in the logistics industry. From worldwide shortages to accidental traffic jams in globally-vital ports, it’s been a crazy year of helping you manage your supply chain!

Learn about some of the highlights of our year at YDL, how our delivery options measure up to Santa himself, and more!

YDL’s Christmas Highlights

The YDL team is passionate about logistics and our local area. As a part of the APC network, we’ve found opportunities throughout 2021 to display our passion through action. This year, we’ve celebrated our award-winning service alongside APC. We’ve also helped fellow APC partner NEP meet the challenging demand this year has brought.

We looked after our own this year too. Our partnership with Westfield Health has allowed us to offer our staff private healthcare and dental plans as we recruit more and more HGV drivers. In addition, our new vehicles now feature the logo of the leading local charity “York Against Cancer”, helping to spread awareness from our depots and beyond.

How we Stack up to Santa

When Jolly Saint Nick rolls down the chimney late on Christmas Eve, he has learnt to master the efficiency of his supply chain. Over just one night, according to The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Santa has to travel at over 650 miles per second to deliver around 321,300 tons of cargo!

Whilst we aren’t travelling that fast, with over 115 national depots alongside overnight tracked delivery, we can confidently supply your business at a speed Santa wouldn’t sneeze at!

Smooth, fast logistics are a vital aspect of modern business. Customers demand efficiency and convenience in an ever more interconnected world. Unlike Santa, we don’t just deliver presents through chimneys.
