BR Saunders, a Walton on Thames-based family haulage company, is growing its business following a seven-figure funding package from HSBC UK.

The company has used the funding to purchase 10 new 32-tonne loader-crane vehicles with lorry loaders capable of lifting up to 10 tonnes along with a six-acre area of land to base its extended fleet. These are expected to increase BR Saunders’ turnover by 20 per cent, with the firm planning to recruit in driver and office positions as a result.

Paul Saunders, Director at BR Saunders, said: “Our long-standing relationship with HSBC UK has been crucial to helping us become a leading and trusted name in the haulage industry. The funding will ensure we continue to provide exceptional service for our customers as we enter another exciting period of growth.”

Chris Chambers, Area Director at HSBC UK, said: “We’re committed to developing personal relationships with our customers and are pleased to be able to provide invaluable support to BR Saunders. We look forward to seeing the new fleet in action and the business continue to grow.”
