Specialised distribution: The function of NCL

Abstract

Catering for the distribution needs of a wide range of clients, from the smaller retailer and supplier to the major High Street multiple, NCL includes amongst its clients Woolworth, Boots, Carrington Viyella, and Marks & Spencer. Originating from British Railways and a subsidiary of the National Freight Corporation, NCL has the advantage of more than a hundred depots located in town centres, and a back‐up of 7,000 vehicles. Its latest venture is the launch of Fashionflow, a specialised distribution operation for hanging garments.
