Navigating our way through Christmas

Kristina Causer

Who has still got all their Christmas shopping left to do? Or are you one of the organised ones who has already bought, wrapped, and put the gifts under the tree? If so your freight ‘persona’ would belong with Sea Freight!

ORGANISED FUN BY SEA FREIGHT

Our wonderful sea freight team have Christmas in the bag by August, working with businesses and supply chains globally to move goods well ahead of the key shopping periods through the festive season. Sea freight is a cost-effective solution for supply chains that are organised months in advance ready to set sail by September. All those Christmas gifts and winter wear may well have left the factories at the height of summer ready to hit the high street ready for eager shoppers.

By the time December arrives our Sea Freight team can kick back and enjoy a mince pie, while our road, rail, and air freight teams are busy organising last-minute loads and supporting the festive supply chain.
