At the beginning of last month, on 1st August, JMS of Doncaster celebrated our 29th anniversary! Founded on 1st August 1989, JMS began life operating, and offering deliveries, from just a single van. We're incredibly proud to still be going strong today, expanding our fleet to a fantastic 35 vehicles, offering warehousing and distribution services, and joining the UK's fastest growing overnight palletised delivery service.
JMS started life all the way back on 1st August 1989, founded by John Sheard. John is still the Managing Director of JMS, and is proud to still very much run the company he founded 29 years ago. He's taken JMS from a single-vehicle operation to a company offering deliveries nationwide, with a 35-vehicle fleet.
The JMS fleet now comprises of 35 vehicles of varying sizes, including 44 Ton Artics, 7.5 Ton Curtain Siders, Sprinter Pick Ups and more. We even boast specialist vehicles, including our MOFFETT truck mounted forklift, allowing us to deliver to locations without access to a forklift truck. This is perfect for delivering goods to safely deliver goods to more remote locations. We're proud to now offer a wide range of delivery options, providing haulage solutions to customers across the country. Our fleet is also environmentally friendly, with 80% of our fleet being EURO V compliant, producing cleaner emissions than some small cars.
As part of our ongoing expansion, in 2007, we relocated JMS of Doncaster. Now, in our new location, we have a 30,000 square-foot warehouse, as well as two acres of secure outdoor storage, allowing us to provide secure storage of your goods. We provide businesses with warehousing and distribution services, as well as full third-party logistics services for our customers.
We have also partnered with Pallet Track, becoming part of their overnight national palletised delivery service. This allows us to offer next day delivery on palletised goods anywhere in the UK. With our expanded fleet and warehousing space, we're proud to offer haulage, warehousing and logistics services with absolute focus on customer satisfaction.
We take pride in our continued growth and expansion over the years. From its inception in 1989, JMS has focused on customer service and satisfaction. We're proud to have carried this over to 29 years in the haulage business, and are looking forward to reaching our 30th anniversary this time next year!
