Hey, this company you mean ■■? think yes. Later renamed Vandem, later gone.
I’m not sure if they pulled straight or as a second sub or spilt work togheter ■■?
But think to remember that was speaken sometimes about an Antwerp operator as a collaboration ■■?
I’m thinking to have still some names of contact people in that time ■■?
I remember well that TIP trailers were rent in if there was a lack of trailers, did some repairwork too
if trailers were too long away from home.
Here we had own work too and spilt it with them. Let’s say Silvertown -Norway, we reloaded own work
for Portugal in Scandinavia and reloaded for them in Spain, took the ferry in Calais or dropped the trailer at Zeebruges. as an example.
And a lot more, as I can’t remember after about 35/40 years.

Hey Finney, could it be that they transported medication to far away countries too,
as I remember ■■? we did, but if it was for UCC can’t remember exactly
