Pentalver Transport Limited is a UK-registered freight transport by road business, incorporated in 1989 and now trading under the Freightliner brand alongside its group. Public evidence associated with this company is presented on Freightliner's own site, describing an intermodal logistics operator combining owned rail, terminals and road transport to move containers from ports and inland terminals to final destinations across the UK. The wider Freightliner group states it moves around 790,000 containers annually using roughly 80 locomotives, and was recently acquired by the CMA CGM Group. Pentalver's own role sits within this structure, providing road haulage as part of Freightliner's end-to-end intermodal logistics network rather than operating independently as a road-only haulier.
