Fergusons Transport in Newport

Fergusons Transport was founded by Matthew Ferguson as a one man business in 1926. With the great depression at its height, Matt took the courageous step of selling his house to invest in his first commercial vehicle, a Bean so as to commence trading as a general carrier between Blyth and Newcastle. Today Fergusons Transport remains a family run company with Alan Ferguson OBE at the helm and is the largest privately owned haulier in the North East. Whilst transport remains the core of their business they also specialise in  Warehousing, Logistics, Removals and Self-Storage. Their numbered fleet consists of around 140 mainly MAN trucks including a batch of recently added TGX 26.480 6x2 (GX)'s.
