Thetford courier company Team C has been named best in the country by APC Overnight delivery. Team C beat 124 other independent companies that operate in the APC network, to win the APC Overnight Depot of the Year Award, for 'above and beyond' service over the past year.

Tim Clements, managing director of Team C Express Logistics, said: "We are absolutely delighted to be recognised by our fellow depots and winning the national award is a huge achievement for this company.

"It is a great reflection of the dedication and professionalism of all our employees.

"The office staff, warehouse and drivers are justifiably very proud of this accomplishment and we will all strive to build on this success for the future."

Ivor Skinner, managing director of APC Overnight, presented the award which was given after a vote by all 125 depots.

"The number of votes received shows the depot team is ready to go out of its way to provide above and beyond service. It is a proactive depot that is consistently helpful to others in the APC Overnight network," he said.
