Road DK haulier

I chose to become a haulier because I prefer being my own boss. And I chose Frode Laursen because I like the fact that they keep their word.”
Lennart
Haulier

Frode keeps its promises

Lennart Brandt Petersen works as a haulier for Frode Laursen. He enjoys working somewhere where people stay true to their word, and where invoices are settled promptly.

– I’ve previously worked in a shop, but I wanted to try something different. I had an HGV licence, and my father used to work for Frode Laursen, so it was obvious for me to apply, says Lennart, who had no doubts about becoming a haulier:

– I prefer being my own boss, he says with a smile, and continues: And Frode’s set-up, which means that you can lease the truck and that you’re guaranteed customers, meant that I was able to start up my own business.

Employed a driver

Lennart has now been working for Frode Laursen for a couple of years, largely driving FMCGs to shops on Funen and Jutland. Less than a year after he started as a haulier, he took on his first driver.

– I was allowed to lease a truck from Frode, and in that way it’s been slightly easier to take the plunge and employ a driver, says Lennart, who now has two employees, and has no qualms about recommending becoming a haulier with Frode Laursen because, as he says:

– The freight forwarders I work with are excellent, payment terms are very favourable, and then I really like the fact that at Frode they keep their promises.
