Freeburn Transport strengthens agri-feed logistics with United Feeds contract

Freeburn Transport is pleased to announce the expansion of its animal feed haulage operations following the award of a new contract with United Feeds.

The operation, which involves the transportation of animal feed from the docks to the United Feeds mill in Dungannon, and onward delivery from the mill to farms across Ireland, represents an important step in Freeburn’s continued diversification and growth.

Previously operated under the leadership of Gerard Loughran, who has recently retired, the contract has now transitioned to Freeburn Transport.

Since taking on the contract, Freeburn has expanded the fleet dedicated to the United Feeds operation from eight trucks to twelve, increasing capacity and efficiency to better support the farming community across Ireland. The expanded operation is being headed up by Matthew Parks, who is overseeing the day-to-day management and continued development of the service.

Chris Freeburn, Managing Director, commented:

“This contract represents an important step in the continued growth and diversification of Freeburn Transport. Expanding the fleet allows us to provide a reliable, efficient service to United Feeds and to support the farming community across Ireland.

“We would also like to acknowledge the work of Gerard Loughran, who successfully led this operation for many years. Gerard’s commitment and professionalism created a strong foundation, and we are pleased to build on that as we move forward.”

This contract marks a significant milestone for Freeburn Transport, strengthening its presence within the agricultural sector and reinforcing its commitment to supporting rural and farming communities across Ireland.
