Knights of Old Enhances French Service with Partnership with Mazet
December 2010

Knights of Old Ltd has enhanced its existing French service by going into partnership with leading French distribution company, Mazet International which is the international division of Mazet Group.

Knights of Old has offered full and part load services to France for over ten years and this new partnership  with Mazet allows the company to offer its customers express transit times for smaller consignments to all regions of the country.

Mazet has been established for over 80 years and currently turns over 123,000,000 Euros. With 1250 staff members, 18 depots throughout France, a further 80 locations through its pallet system and 430 distribution vehicles, Mazet is a real benefit to Knights of Old’s French service.

Ian Beattie, Managing Director, Knights of Old said: “This new partnership is fantastic news for us. We have offered a service to France for a number of years but joining with Mazet will allow us to extend our opportunities with our existing and potential clients.”

This new operation is well underway and both Knights of Old and Mazet are seeing huge advantages. Beattie continues: “Our existing clients have commented on the benefits of the improved service not only on cost but also the quality that they come to expect from Knights of Old and its partners.”

Michel Hours, Managing Director, Mazet International explained: “Working alongside a reputable company like Knights of Old will open up Mazet International’s services in a big way. We can now offer a smart and efficient route into the main depot of a well established UK and Irish transport system. Both Mazet and Knights of Old work to the same high standards and focus on quality for our clients which is crucial to the development of our businesses.”
