Supply chain and logistics consultancy Paul Trudgian Ltd has launched PTL Co as its new trading brand, reflecting the evolution of the business and providing a platform for its future development.
Whilst Paul Trudgian Ltd remains the legal entity behind the business, the new PTL Co identity better reflects the consultancy clients experience today.
When the business was established, the name Paul Trudgian Ltd accurately reflected a founder-led consultancy built around individual expertise, direct client relationships and hands-on project delivery. Over time, however, both the scope of work undertaken and the organisations supported have expanded considerably.
Today, PTL Co supports organisations across manufacturing, retail, wholesale, ecommerce and logistics, delivering projects ranging from inventory optimisation and forecasting improvements through to warehouse design, logistics procurement, systems selection, automation reviews and broader supply chain transformation initiatives.
The move to PTL Co is not a change in direction. It is an identity that better represents the business today whilst retaining the values that have underpinned the consultancy from the outset.
Independence remains a defining characteristic of the business. PTL Co does not sell software, operate warehouses, provide transport services or represent specific technology vendors. Recommendations are based solely on what is right for each client.
The launch of PTL Co also reflects a belief that sits at the heart of much of the consultancy's work:
"Most supply chain problems don't start in the supply chain. They start with the decisions behind it."
Many organisations focus on the visible symptoms of operational challenges such as excess stock, poor availability, warehouse constraints, rising logistics costs or disappointing service performance. However, the underlying causes of those issues are often established long before they become operational problems.
The new brand provides a platform for the next stage of the consultancy's development and an identity that better reflects the breadth of services, experience and support available to clients today.
A NEW IDENTITY. THE SAME INDEPENDENT EXPERTISE.
