Awarding winning provider of time-critical freight transport services,
Priority Freight has responded to the growing demand for its cross-trade lead
logistics services around the globe by establishing a stand-alone department at
its London Heathrow branch office.
The new Cross-trade Department headed by Tom Outhwaite
offers a unique
service coordinating all third country freight and customs clearance
activities. All movements, standard, expedited and technical such as
temperature controlled, oversized goods and hazardous cargo are coordinated
from one location. Customers using the cross-trade service from verticals
sectors including pharmaceutical, automotive and aerospace have increased
substantially from the beginning of 2014. General Manager Gemma Holmes
said “Such is the growth of our
cross-trade work that the specialised service now accounts for 27% of the
shipments we handle at Heathrow. The new cross-trade department, which under
Tom’s expert guidance is unique amongst Heathrow forwarders, will further
improve our dedicated service to customers with freight moves that challenge
other providers.”
Commenting on the move to expand the Heathrow office Holmes explained “This Investment in a team dedicated to
cross-trade business will ensure that our clients receive the full benefit of
Priority Freight’s global expedited logistics solutions. The buyer
remains in control as the goods move directly from shipper to final receiver.
This saves on cost, time and is more environmentally friendly”
Neal Williams, Group Managing Director of Priority Freight welcomed the
development at Heathrow. “Priority
Freight has a well-earned reputation for its skills in expedited freight
transport. Our multi-lingual staff has a dedicated 24/7 attitude to
monitoring shipments throughout the world. This expertise lends itself
perfectly to the care of cross-trade consignments whatever their content and
wherever there origin. I expect significant further growth in this type of
business.”
