Burry Port Company Celtic Couriers wins national award

APC Overnight, the UK’s largest overnight parcel delivery network, has presented its Overall Award for depot of the year to APC Celtic Couriers in Burry Port. The award recognises the depot’s outstanding performance and commitment to customer service excellence.

This is the ultimate award presented to an APC Depot and is one of a string of annual awards won by Celtic Couriers who also topped off its big win with a Regional Award. Depot of the Year is awarded to its top performing depot, recognising "above and beyond" service performance throughout the past year. More than 120 depots took part in the largest competition of its kind, with the awards presented at the company’s Annual Conference. "We are delighted to receive this national award. We strive to be the best at what we do and I am pleased that the dedication of all my members of staff has been recognised by this award. They are completely focused on giving 100 per cent customer service," said Gail Skinner, Celtic Couriers, Managing Director.
