SPAR Scotland wholesaler CJ Lang and Son is using Brakes Scotland drivers to help with deliveries in the face of increasing demand from SPAR stores.

This new initiative not only brings two Dundee businesses together to keep the supply chain moving but also helps protect local jobs.
Colin McLean, CEO of CJ Lang, said: “To increase delivery capacities to our 300 SPAR stores across Scotland, we have decided to work with local Dundee-based foodservice operator Brakes Scotland, who will provide us with additional transport support. These drivers will support our existing core team of drivers who are doing a fantastic job.”
He added: “We have access to a constant supply of food and drink products from our warehouse as we continue to experience a huge increase in orders from our SPAR stores. Our logistics operation is running smoothly, and our warehouse team and drivers have been tremendous in maintaining this constant supply.
“We have deliveries going out across to all areas of Scotland on a daily basis. Everyone in the entire network is working unbelievably hard to maintain a constant supply of product to customers. We are very appreciative of the work our suppliers are doing in maintaining a good level of stock and I can’t thank our head office team in Dundee, our independent retailers and company-owned staff enough.”
