How can anyone believe a word that these people say?

Following a comprehensive tendering process last November, The Aventas Group has been working with CEVA Logistics to find out how to combine their internal fleet and facilities with their infrastructure in a bid to make logistics stronger and business more competitive. The Aventas Group has now reached agreement with CEVA under which they propose to transfer fleet and associated facilities to the global company.
They say the arrangement will enable them to be more competitive, while at the same time, enhancing the overall level of job security. In a statement, the Group says for employees transferring to CEVA it’ll open up opportunities arising from a greater volume and variety of work as well as career opportunities which will come from being part of a much larger global business. Aventas say CEVA will operate from a base on site in Derrylin. They say this will ensure the continued contribution of these businesses to the local economy.
FULL STATEMENT
As previously indicated in November last, following a comprehensive tendering process, we have been working exclusively with CEVA Logistics to establish how we could combine our internal fleet and facilities with their infrastructure to make our logistics stronger and our business more competitive. We have now reached agreement with CEVA Logistics under which we propose to transfer our fleet and associated facilities to CEVA under an arrangement which we believe will enable us to be more competitive and at the same time will enhance the overall level of job security.
This initiative will generate a number of benefits for the company including cost efficiencies through better utilisation of our transport fleet and facilities and the increased buying power of a much bigger transport company. For employees transferring to CEVA it opens up opportunities arising from a greater volume and variety of work as well as the greater number and variety of career opportunities which will come from being part of a much larger global business. CEVA will operate from a base on site in Derrylin which will ensure the continued contribution of these businesses to the local economy.
We don’t see job losses arising. The total number of people involved is close to 200. All will transfer to CEVA. We do see a greater volume of work been generated, e.g. the vast majority of our loads are full out and empty back in. One of the big attractions from a cost savings and cost efficiency point of view is that CEVA can generate those backloads which we cannot. Also they can generate additional two way work for the lorries and the drivers. The savings will be generated through better utilisation of the fleet which we expect to increase significantly from where it is today as well as from better buying power. We are satisfied that significant savings can be achieved and that these will build up over time.
