Head of Ireland Trailer Service · 22 years on the Irish Sea lanes

"Whether it's a single pallet to Drogheda or a dedicated trailer to Cork, my desk owns it end-to-end — customs included. One number, one team, and a load plan that actually leaves on time."

"CMI have run our weekly Dublin groupage for eleven years. Customs is one conversation, not five, and the schedule is the schedule — we plan production around it."
