There are fewer lines of businesstougher to be in than theinternational haulage game, but

for the past decade and a half EamonnBarrett and co have continued to makeit work.

Established by its current proprietorback in 1998, Eamonn BarrettInternational Transport has earned itselfa strong reputation throughout Ireland,and indeed Europe, for providing areliable service to its customers. “We’re based in Askeaton in CountyLimerick and we have 10 peopleworking here full-time, including myselfand my wife Helen,” explained Eamonn.“It’s a family run business and when wefirst started out it was with just one lorry

On theinternational trailComing up on 15 years in business, Eamonn Barrett International Transportin Co Limerick are continuing to lead the way in international haulage. IrishTrucker spoke to the Managing Director himself to find out more.

on the road. And lots of help fromfamily and friends. It’s taken off fromthere really and we work all over thecontinent now.” While it sounds simple, EamonnBarrett International Transport had itfar from easy before establishingthemselves as a steady business.Many long hauls and late hoursearned Eamonn his customers earlyon and allowed him to eventuallyemploy more drivers to get hisbusiness off the ground. Now the company boasts a strongfleet which journeys all across Europeto ensure that its customers arecompletely satisfied. “Basically what we do is internationalhaulage to all European cities andbeyond. Romania is the furthest wehave gone to, And would be willing toeven further,” stated Eamonn. “I am a mechanic by trade and Ialways had an interest in trucks from avery small age. I have a very goodfriend Edward O Callaghan and Ibought my first truck from him whichwas an 1987 Scania 112 in 1998 andit all started up after that and thebusiness just grew from strength tostrength. We are sourcing work andmaking new contacts in many places.” Barrett International Transport nowhave a well-earned list of contentcustomers from all over the continent. However, with the economy in thestate it finds itself in, in this country atpresent, Eamonn’s company, like somany others in Ireland, have had totighten its belt to try and ride out therecession which has effected so manyin this country.“It’s tight at the moment. It’s reallyabout survival now and to hope for alittle profit to retain,” he admitted. “Profit margins are small and if youhave a new truck, you need two oldones to help pay for it. We have up todate technology systems here andwe’re looking to keep our fleet asmodern as we can, but as I said thingsare tight.” The rising cost of fuel has beensomething which has hit companieslike Eamonn’s quite hard over the pasttwo years. He admits that it’s nowtougher than ever for those in thehaulage industry, but he is keen toexplore whatever good options he can

to try and ride out the storm. “It’s a huge impact. I was onlytaking to our diesel supplier todayand it’s going up again tonight,” Asit does ever week; stated the MD. “With the work that we do, we buymost of our diesel abroad where itis cheaper and unless the heads ofstate do something here, there’snothing we can do about that.Companies all over in Ireland thatdo work abroad are doing the sameand it’s no surprise with the ratewhich diesel and petrol are at in thiscountry at the moment.” The Eamonn Barrett InternationalTransport fleet ensures that thecompany’s customers are satisfiedby getting from ‘A to B’ safely andon time, and Eamonn has done aterrific job down through the yearsto make sure that his trucks aremaintained to a very high standard. “We have 10 lorries, five of themare Scanias, three are DAFs andtwo Renaults,” Eamonn stated. “They would all be between 2000and 2009 and I think I’m going towork with what I have at the minute.If things continue to go the waythey are going, we’ll be downsizingrather than buying new I’m afraid.” Those are the tough choices thatface any business man, butEamonn is grateful to still have theloyal support of customers whichhave been with him from the verybeginning, as well as the ones heacquired soon after setting up anddown through the years. He acknowledged that there havebeen businesses in his local areathat have felt the heat more so thanhim in the last few years, and hasbeen thankful for their support andthe support of others over the last15 odd years.

“Our main customers wouldbe DSV Dublin, DFDS, andwe also do a good bit ofwork for other companiesboth National andInternational ,” he stated “There have been biglosses in the area, one ofwhich was Dell Computerswho we had been doingwork with since 2002. Westarted going out on thecontinent in 2001 andthankfully we still continueto do that on a weeklybasis.”The plan now for Eamonnand co is to try and weatherthe storm, hope thatbusinesses allacross Irelandcan enjoy bettertimes and fuelcosts will godown. Whilethings look setto get worsebefore they getbetter, the MD ofEamonn BarrettI n t e r n a t i o n a lTransport is asoptimistic asever andhopeful for thefuture. “We hope to beable to sustainthe hardshipnow andcontinue to bean employer in the area.Hopefully there will besomething there for our kidsin a few years if they want it,”he said. Eamonn BarrettInternational Transport is amember of the Irish RoadHaulage Association (IRHA)and is also part of the Smallto Medium Enterprise(SME). In recent years, Eamonnand co have also workedclosely with the RoadSafety Authority (RSA) indeveloping themaintenance program fortheir truck and trailer fleet.

The latter notes: “My father is 80now and he still keeps an eye onthings. He’s very much up to speedwith everything that’s going onaround here. The family traditionactually goes back to when mygreat grandfather started with ahorse and cart down the docks andhad his own company. It’s verymuch in the blood at this stage.”

Recent years have seen thecompany – which provides anexcellent distribution serviceexclusively to one client, namelyDunnes Stores - make tremendousstrides. Vanfleet decided to eschewthe warehousing side of thebusiness a few years ago and alsorelocated from Santry to its currentbase in Rosemount Park.

“In 2008, we completely re-jiggedthe fleet,” Paul continues. “We had

15 rigids and ten artics and weused a lot of subcontractors to fulfilour contracts. However, based onthe projections we got from ourcustomer we realised we didn’tneed to use subcontractorsanymore and that we could handleeverything ourselves in-house.

“We now have 29 tractor units andwe kept nine rigids. We also have a

fleet of 50 trailers and one dockspotter, which we operate aroundthe clock. We keep all the vehiclesrunning on a daily basis and wehave the capacity to turnover 1,200pallets per day.

“The distribution is nationwide andwould typically start from 2amonwards. We could have anythingup to 50 or 60 loads per day. At themoment, we’re mostly deliveringtextiles and homewares and we

also have a waste licence whichallows us to bring back all thecardboard for recycling.”

All the vehicles are fitted withsophisticated, state-of-the-arttracking technology which affordsthe customer access to every detailthey might wish to retrieve … at thepush of a button, including theexact real-time location of a

consignment, the departure and/ordelivery times, ETAs etc.

All Vanfleet drivers have full CPCtraining and a regular in-housesafety course is also organised tocomplement their skills andknowledge. Weekly checks arecarried out on all vehicles to seewhich are due a service and alltrailers are serviced three times ayear (four times per year for theolder ones).

The entire fleet is maintained inexcellent condition, with automaticwarnings a month ahead of DOEsand everything is managed to thevery highest standards. “We alsohave our own wash team who washthe vehicles twice a week and weinsist on a twice weekly check ontyre pressure etc.,” Paul adds.

“We bought six new Cartwrighttrailers in 2010 and in 2011 we gotanother new Cartwright trailer withan aero kit. Customers always wantto know what savings can be madeand we always strive to give themthe best value for money possible,so we’re constantly investing innew equipment and newtechnology.

“Since we decided to expand thefleet and provide the fulldistribution service ourselves,there has obviously been a severedownturn in the Irish economy butwe review things month on monthto see where we can save our

customer money and we will makesuggestions, such as maybereducing deliveries to one hub fromfive times a week to three times.Most of this is taken on board.”

In terms of staff numbers, VanfleetTransport Ld. employs 37 full-timedrivers as well as six administrationstaff and would also use betweenten and 15 agency drivers in anygiven week. The company boastsits own workshop facility with apart-time mechanic who can handlesmaller jobs but most of the workgoes to the main suppliers. In 2008,a decision was made to use Hinotrucks as Harris Hino is located

nearby and Paul is delighted withthe brand new vehicles purchasedboth in ’08 and ’09. “It representeda significant investment but theHino offers exceptional value formoney,” he contests.

As for the future challenges facingthis long-running and extremelysuccessful family business, PaulFitzsimons is confident they willcontinue to maintain theirexceptional tradition in the Irishhaulage sector: “Our goal is toremain competitive in the marketand to keep our customer as happyas possible, especially by comingup with new ways to save them

money. We source the cheapestfuel and maintenance possible butyou have to keep safety in mind atall times, so you can’t afford to becutting corners. If you’re going toprovide a quality service, youcan’t scrimp on anything – andVanfleet has always provided aquality service.”

There are obvious difficultiesfacing everybody in the industry butDeclan is determined to battle on:“The price of fuel and dumping feesare going up all the time and there’sno doubt times are tough, but wewill give a good service and willcontinue to keep prices as low aspossible for the customer. We prideourselves on providing a good priceand a good service.

Over half a million Euro has beeninvested in fleet and machineryover the past four years. Regardingthe actual fleet, Declan continues:“Because of the very nature of theindustry, the work is very hard onthe trucks. The backroads wouldn’tbe in great condition at the bestof times and it takes its toll. Wecertainly go through a lot ofsprings! My father is amechanic by trade and wehave a good team ofmechanics who do a great job.You need to know a bit aboutfixing and maintaining trucksto survive in this business.

All recovery vehicles undergoregular safety checks


Safety first forAlcorn RecoveryAlcorn Recovery in Co Tyrone provides an exceptional 24-hour recovery toa large customer base. Irish Trucker paid a visit to the Sixmilecrossheadquarters and met up with managing director Roy Alcorn to discuss theongoing success of this popular family business.

Breakdowns and worse,crashes are something thatall motorists strive to avoid,

but unfortunately they are an everyday part of life. The stress of these

can be very hard on people, butwhen you have a professional,reliable service like Alcorn Recoverylooking after your vehicle, then theycan make the burden that much

easier to deal with.Why did Roy decide to form the

recovery company? “I just felt thatthe opening was there. Our familyhas been involved in the repair sideof things for many decades andthis seemed like the logical nextstep.”

Specialising in the recovery ofcars and light commercials, thisTyrone based firm relies very muchon the family ethic. Roy's wifeMavis looks after theadministration side of the businessand he admits that the businesswould be nowhere without herassistance.

“Mavis basically looks aftereverything on the administrationside of the business and she justcouldn't be done without. “Mydaughter Lesley would also helpout with the administration side ofthings, while my son Peter, who isRoy has worked hard to

establish the business

a civil engineering in Belfast helps out on his weekend's off.My brother in law Martin does some of the recovery work aswell, so family is everything to us as we are only a smalloperation.”

Another man that plays a huge part in the business isRichard Shortt, who use to work full time here, but now hekeeps one of our trucks full time on the A5.

Roy may think that it is a 'small operation' but his largecustomer base suggests otherwise, the majority of whichcome from the public sector and the MD admits that therelocation is key to the success they have sustained over theyears.

“We are only eight miles from Omagh which means we areideally placed to cope with breakdowns on the motorwaysaround us. The majority of our work would be done for thepublic sector with only about 5% coming from the privatesector.

“We are fortunate to have a very loyal customer base,many of who have been with us from the start. We haveworked hard to build the business up over the years and myonly regret is that I didn't start years earlier.”

A full 24-hour service is provided, seven days of the week,365 days per year. A professional, prompt and affordableservice is provided at all times and Alcorn Recovery isrenowned for getting the job done on time every time. As thecompany's stellar reputation spreads, they are benefitingfrom more and more business through word of mouth.Simply put, this business is now established as one of thepremier recovery / breakdown operators in Ulster. Acomprehensive service is provided under one roof and theavailability of a fully-qualified crew of mechanical repairtechnicians using the latest state-of-the-art equipmentmeans customers can be back on the road in double-quicktime.

“We're available 24 hours a day to recover anything from amoped to a light commercial. We are contracted to carryanything up to 3 and a half tonnes. We can recover a vehiclefrom literally anywhere - the roadside, out of a bog orwherever it might be stranded. Our equipment is veryversatile and for that reason the work can be quite varied.

Roy is pleased to report that he is reasonably busy at themoment. “We're tipping away. Things have picked up in thelast six months or so, which is encouraging. From '06 up to'09, it was booming. Things have been a lot quieter since,but we're still kept ticking over. This work can beseasonable, but in all honesty even though many might think

The company provides a 24 hour service 365 days of the year

that the winter is busier, I think thesummer can be busier at times aspeople are driving a lot faster.

With a fleet of four trucks at theirdisposal, Roy reveals that theybuild their own in order to ensurethat they are getting the recoveryvehicle that they want. “Yes wewould buy in the cab and chassisand build our own recoveryvehicles. That way we know whatwe are getting and it is to ourspecifications. It takes us aboutthree months to build it as findingthe time to work on it is the

hardest part.”In this line of business, no

corners can be cut and nochances can be taken. To thisend, Alcorn Recovery is fullycertified and does everything incompliance with existinglegislation andrecommendations. “Health &Safety are of paramountimportance,” Roy confirms.“You have to be clearly visiblewhen you're out on the roadand you have to keep all theequipment fresh, clean and inprime working order. Image iseverything so we look afterour fleet. All vehicles arechecked on a daily basis andmaintenance is key. Thedrivers must go on refreshercourses every two years toensure they are up to datewith the latest legislation.”

As for the future, Royconcludes: “We'll try to keep

our overheads down, keep themoney coming in and offer as muchhelp as possible to the people whoneed our service. We have nomajor plans to expand for the timebeing, but we are pleased with thedirection that the business isheading.”

Roy is well known to manyinvolved in the rallying circuit as hewas an excellent rally driver inyears gone by, especially in theUlster area, where he regularlypicked up honours on the variouscircuits.
