of the year. The relocation to the southeast London site aligns with growth strategy and allows the company to stock a greater volume and breadth of lifting, rigging, and safety equipment. LGH has additional sites in Aberdeen and the national rental and customer contact centre in Manchester. Colin Naylor, managing director at LGH, said: “The original
warehouse was shared with a sister company, Rotrex Winches, and we always planned to relocate to an independent site within 18 months of opening [in February 2017]. First it was important to embed ourselves back into the marketplace and gain an understanding of client demographic and the level of demand the region would place upon the facility.” He added: “Business [in London] is very buoyant across several sectors, including infrastructure, utilities, construction, and industrial projects.” Meanwhile, gaining silver accreditation from FORS, a voluntary
organisation that promotes best practice for commercial vehicle operators, further establishes LGH in the capital city. FORS is gaining recognition as the transport industry’s go-to accreditation scheme but it is already a prerequisite for any fleet operating in the London area. Silver FORS status confirms that LGH employs good practice
and complies with the requirements laid out by the stringent FORS standard. By achieving FORS silver, a company’s fleet is deemed compliant with Construction Logistics and Community Safety (CLOCS) standards and with Transport for London’s (TfL) Work Related Road Risk (WRRR). y
