China continues to be a strong focus for YRC Logistics
Whilst in China recently, Linda Yang and myself were introduced to a company of significant size who we are providing quality intra China logistics solutions for. Previously YRCL UK would probably not have been seen as a candidate for their International Forwarding, European Transportation or Customs Brokerage but this company was good enough to allow us to meet back in England. We were able to discuss their needs and identified areas with our relevant Subject Matter Experts, that we can provide solutions for their 30 full loads to mainland Europe per week as well as customs brokerage. I owe my friends and colleagues in China a warm and large thank you for the kind introduction to this client.
On a personal note, pre my trip to China I had been working hard to try and reverse the trend of good living over many years and lose some weight. I was concerned that two weeks of great Chinese food & good company would move me backwards. I probably have never eaten so much food or enjoyed so much good company, but what was even better was that I was amazed to return and get on my scales (with one eye shut) to find I had lost 5lbs in weight.
It was simple really when I look back at what I had eaten, beacuase even though I had consumed much more than I would normally, it was mainly fish and meat. There was no bread, pasta, fish and chips (private joke) or Yorkshire pudding. This is all common sense of course but a lesson I have taken onboard and I have altered my eating habits now I am back home and I am now going in the right direction health and weight wise for the first time in many years. I may even need to get a new photo attached to my blog. That is another thing I have thank my Chinese friends for.
