Must be the new roof we put on the building,<br />
I’m sure it’s helped by keeping the rain outside!<br />
<strong>The</strong> Wellington team has probably provided the<br />
greatest turnaround since taking on the new<br />
facility and tripling their overheads as a result.<br />
With a warehouse reaching its capacity, the<br />
team has done a wonderful job showing what<br />
can be done when you embrace the standards<br />
we are all so proud of.<br />
With new business proving an additional 50<br />
containers a week, there was no room for error;<br />
with the cooperation of the other divisions the<br />
outcome has been heartening.<br />
O’Rorke Road has always historically been<br />
our best performing operation and it’s this<br />
consistency that has made them champions.<br />
We understand at times we don’t have enough<br />
people and hours get extended, as we often<br />
have no choice but to meet our customers’<br />
ever-increasing expectations.<br />
It doesn’t go without notice and we appreciate<br />
and say thanks to those who have helped<br />
maintained our standards in both O’Rorke and<br />
all our other operations.<br />
Owens Logistics Auckland has again started<br />
the year strongly and we expect more good<br />
things from this unique operation focused on<br />
the Dangerous Goods market. Christchurch has<br />
had a bumpy start, but given the quality of the<br />
team and the passion they project,<br />
a return to satisfactory profits will<br />
not be far away. With the addition<br />
of a class 3 bunker nearing<br />
completion (after only two years<br />
trying to get through local council<br />
and site owners), Brynley’s team<br />
will finally have an answer to some<br />
of our DG storage constraints in<br />
Christchurch.<br />
Additionally we have just installed<br />
our first ‘curtain-sided canopy’ in<br />
Owens Christchurch as a means<br />
to create much better utilisation of<br />
the building’s design for outside<br />
storage.<br />
