FUEL ADJUSTMENT FACTOR UPDATE ........ As everyone is aware the ongoing fuel crisis is causing a continual and large escalation in fuel prices for everybody. As a transport company, fuel represents a significant part of our operating costs and these increases are so substantial we are unable to absorb them. We have been running a Fuel Adjustment Factor (FAF) for a number of years now and means a fair price is delivered to the farmer with the FAF rate moving as diesel goes up and down. Our fuel costs have increased by 55% in the last 10 days, without knowing what will happen till the end of the month, we are estimating our FAF rate could be at a minimum 25%.

We always look to be loaded both ways as often as possible trying to be as efficient as we can, this will be even more important over the coming months so your early bookings will certainly be appreciated.

We appreciate your business and ongoing support and know this is a difficult and challenging time for everyone, please don’t hesitate to give us a call if you need some clarification with your booking costs.

Regards, Kris Orange – Managing Director
