Bridgetime support Festive's Christmas rush

Fortec Member Bridgetime Transport, based in Cwmbran, are helping their customer Festive Productions, deliver a little magic ahead of Christmas this year.


In what is the third year that the logistics company, a shareholder member of both Fortec and Pall-Ex, has worked with Festive Productions (Festive), Bridgetime provides all of the logistical solutions for Festive which involves deliveries to residential properties, garden centres and major distribution centres belonging to the likes of John Lewis, QVC Home Shopping and Wilkinson’s Retail.


Festive is one of the leading seasonal decoration suppliers in the world and it is the UK’s number one manufacturer of British made tinsel, providing an innovative and unique range of products.


Consequently, the business sees a massive increase in trading as Christmas approaches each year and they rely on having a dependable distribution partner to support them in meeting this demand.


Bridgetime is located very close to Festive, within walking distance in fact, meaning both businesses are perfectly positioned to cultivate and nurture a strong and successful working relationship.

Managing Director of Bridgetime Transport, Robbie Evans, is proud of his continued relationship with Festive. He acknowledges the importance of ensuring deliveries are made ahead of Christmas this year, more than ever.


He says; “We are proud to support Festive each year and help them with their established, successful business.


“We offer a range of services, from parcels all the way through to pallet deliveries and having that level of flexibility seems to have created a perfect fit for both Festive and us.”

Robbie continues; “In what has been a tough year for everyone, both professionally and personally, we are pleased to be helping deliver some Christmas cheer across the country through our work with Festive.


“I am hopeful that our positive relationship will continue to deliver for many years and Christmases to come!


“Since the businesses began working together three years ago, Festive Productions has continued to enjoy success and we are happy to have played a part in that.”

Gareth Read, Operations Manager of Festive comments on their relationship with Bridgetime, saying; “We couldn’t be happier with the work that Bridgetime have done since we started trading with them. This year has brought new challenges with the pandemic and together with the Bridgetime team we have been able to diversify to meet customer demand.


“Our premises are located within walking distance of each-other, so we really do have a fantastic level of communication and support from the whole team there, especially at this time of year being our peak.


“The months leading up to Christmas are extremely busy for us so knowing that our distribution is taken care of by a partner we can trust makes a world of difference.

“With the two businesses once again seeing their partnership succeed, it seems likely that Christmas will be delivered by Bridgetime for many years to come as our relationship grows from strength to strength.”
