Fodder Crisis 2018

Nolan Transport were contacted by DairyGold to once again aid in the emergency transport of fodder. We have been constantly collecting and delivering loads over the last few weeks.



Dailygold have been able to keep up to date with all of these high priority loads through our Customer Portal system



Our team, headed by Kevin Fitzharris, were down at Rosslare Europort this last week with a film crew to show the work we have been doing, and will continue to do, to help in this time of emergency.
