Heavy metal

摘要

To survive in the heavy recovery business you need to be creative and think well outside your own locality. Why? Because the business generated from a small geographical orbit is increasingly hard to stack up against the sheer cost of acquiring and running specialised recovery chassis. Mark Cowan, operations director of CMG, the Newport Pagnell-based commercial vehicle recovery and heavy plant transport specialist, knows this only too well. He has nationwide contracts with high profile hauliers such as Fowler Welch, Wreford's Transport, Great Bear Distribution and XPO Logistics (formerly Norbert Dentressangle).
