Business description

Having been established for more than twenty years – and operated from its current site for the past nine – this business, located approximately halfway between the port of Dover and Heathrow airport and ideal for international freight companies to drop cargo for onward distribution, this business is a long established provider of specialist logistics and distribution services. It also offers more general road haulage services acting as a storage and distribution point for a number of businesses across a number of sectors, often providing added value services – re-palletising, for example.

Operating from leased premises of approximately 8,000 square feet with ample space for storage of Client goods when required, this business operates predominantly in the air freight ditribution sector with approximately 95% of its business activity concentrated through London Heathrow airport. As a result this business has all the necessary aviation security requirements and is a customer approved air freight depot. Collecting from and delivering to its customers during the day, the business consolidates its freight, ‘trunking’ up to Heathrow in the evenings. With a system of alerts in place sent to customers whenever there’s a vehicle with spare capacity in their area, vehicle utilisation rates are higher than average.
