Some of the larger Bulk transport companies such as Agribulk may be in with a chance of being the biggest UK only company.

hargreaves might be bigger than agribulk :question: wot about the sherwood group and companies also :question: :question: :question:

Nobby Dressingtable are considered a “Transport Giant” with expanding interests worldwide, including China.
I keep seeing adverts for FT posts where they expect you to tramp out 4 days at a time, AND hold a hazchem ADR to level 4 - all for less basic than you’d get at every other employer in the entire area!
