Browns Distribution x ClarusWMS 🤝

We're delighted to announce our partnership with Clarus WMS, marking another major step forward in our investment in technology and the continued evolution of our business.

Following the successful launch of our in-house transport management system, Touchbase, we're now bringing that same ambition to our warehousing operations at Distribution House.

With Clarus now on board, we're strengthening our capabilities with advanced stock management, real-time inventory visibility and powerful system integrations, giving our customers greater control and connectivity across their supply chains.

A little something for a great cause! 🧡

Today, the Browns team marked World Mental Health Day with a dress-down day, some breakfast treats and a raffle with a hamper up for grabs!

It was all in support of North Staffs Mind, helping to raise funds and awareness for the incredible work they do in supporting mental health across our local communities.

And the best part? We've hit our fundraising target! 🎉

A huge thank you to everyone who got involved, donated and helped us reach our goal. It's great to see the team coming together to support such an important cause.

Our latest blog looks at some of the Touchbase features customers are finding particularly useful, and how they’re helping to make day-to-day freight management that little bit simpler.

Freight Expectations Issue #3 is live! 🗞️

There’s plenty more packed into Issue #3 too, including our recent Motor Transport coverage, what’s been happening in the warehouse, another trip to Wimbledon and David’s top five Touchbase features.

So, before we properly get stuck into Q4, have a catch-up on everything that happened in Q3. 🧡

Your pallet tracking just got a whole lot easier. 📍

🚛 Dynamic tracking – follow your freight as it moves through its journey
🕒 Delivery ETAs – plan ahead with ETAs and two-hour delivery windows
🔔 Live updates & notifications – stay informed as the status of your consignment changes
📸 Collection & delivery photos – see a visual record from both ends of the journey
📄 Proof of delivery – access completed delivery information without having to chase for it
