Logistic provider helps transport toiletries to Ukraine
R�hlig UK has been able to organise logistics towards Ukraine to deliver toiletries.
The family owned freight forwarding company was storing thousands of nappies for a customer, Zuru, some of which were used as promotional stock.
R�hlig approached C and B Investment Partners to reach out to Zuru to ask if they would consider donating this stock to the people of Ukraine. Zuru were very happy to do so, giving R�hlig UK the green light to organise and pay for the logistics through their Polish partner, R�hlig SUUS, to get them to Ukraine as soon as possible.
Additionally, the company donated £5000 worth of goods including water and toiletries to Ukraine. R�hlig SUUS provided and paid for the transport of these goods from the UK to Ukraine through the International Red Cross.
R�hlig Logistics ' CEO of North Europe, Gary Pryke, said: “Supporting our wider community is so important to R�hlig. Zuru 's donation is inspiring and being able to transport these goods to the people who need them is something we will happily do every opportunity we can. ”
The company which celebrated its 170th birthday employs over 2400 people across 35 countries has 3 branches across the UK with its head office and warehouse in Solihull.
