I’m sure I read about a month or two ago in CM that Goldstar were one of a few companies highlighted by some economist or suchlike, that were incredibly stable and should have a view to expanding.

It’s old news this it’s been in the pipeline for a few weeks now. Felixstowe is changing big time and so is container work (if you can find any) there will soon be no small to medium size hauliers left there . Most now belong to shpping companies or big groups such as dhl, wincanton.
There’s more to go yet but less people to sell to they will just end up going bust or closing the gates.
As for the c.e.l group who knows how much of it wincanton will keep.
