transport solutions to maximise productivity gains. The fleet currently manages two depots, Melbourne and Sydney, and runs 32 wellserviced heavy vehicles which are crucial to the success of the company as well as the broader partnership between Naughton and Vawdrey. Leigh has a passion for the transport industry and is adamant that the business doesn’t work unless the team works together. “Naughton Transport Services has worked with Vawdrey Australia for 30 memorable years,” Leigh says. He adds the latest Vawdrey trailer investment is mainly due to the size and payload capacity. “Our trailers need to be large enough to carry the required freight to the destination, whether it be in Sydney or Melbourne.”
