LPR celebrates 22nd year of sustained growth

LPR, a division of Euro Pool Group, is celebrating continued growth for the 22nd consecutive year. The European pallet-pooling provider has announced a turnover of more than 150 million Euros for 2014, up from 133 million Euros in 2013 – a growth of approximately 15% year-on-year.

Xavier Goube, managing director of LPR, said: “We are thrilled with the growth we’ve seen in the past year especially during a difficult economic climate in Europe. We attribute our success to our market-leading customer service and we are permanently out in the field monitoring the needs of our manufacturing customers.

“Our extensive network of 94 service centres across 12 European countries allows us to adapt our offer constantly to enable us to propose a simple and efficient pooling and management service, to suit the changing needs of our customers.”

LPR delivered 62 million pallets in 2014, rising from 53 million in 2013. However this is expected to grow to 70 million pallet movements in 2015 due to a number of new contract wins with high profile blue chip FMCG manufactures, including Nestlé and Kellogg’s.
