Who we are
How OakRA began
OakRA is the brain child of Shaun Foley, the Oakland Group MD, borne out of the desire to reduce cardboard waste whilst looking at food distribution through a completely new lens.
Following industry research and product development into the optimum material to use and smart tracking solutions, the reusable container concept was launched.
The OakRA name came about as a marriage of Oak to represent the Oakland International parent company, along with RA for Returnable Assets.
