Start-Ups to Success Stories Made Possible By Logistics

Celebrating the UK’s entrepreneurial spirit

As the world throws more challenges in the way of supply chains and the cost-of-living crisis escalates, it’s an uncertain time for businesses globally. But there are businesses all across the UK that are refusing to be held back and their entrepreneurial spirits are continuing to make their mark.

 

We are here to celebrate all those brands and to shine a light on the important part logistics plays in supporting that success. From the cyber mannequin creator to the FTSE 100 clothing retailer Baxter Freight has had some truly unique insights and impacts on brands, whether that is at start-up or the next development of their growth strategy and here we see how.

 

Logistics: The secret ingredient of success

Think about the term ‘logistics’, the Cambridge Dictionary cites it as: “The careful organisation of a complicated activity so that it happens in a successful and effective way.”

It’s our job to find success for our customers and find clever, effective solutions for complex problems.

 

From start up

Take the emerging sporting trend ‘Padel’ now one of the UK’s fastest-growing sports with over 200 courts in the country.

Padel is often described as a mix between tennis and squash and it is played on an enclosed court, about 25% smaller than a tennis court. A more accessible and inclusive racket sport, the trend is taking off and logistics is helping make this happen.

Padel Tech is one of the key suppliers of padel courts in the UK, importing from Europe, and are the team behind the installation of the largest padel center in the UK! The team at Padel Tech is passionate about the sport and their product, not about customs and import documentation and everything that goes with it.

The part the right logistics partner plays here is finding the right solution to move product; ranging from exploring the most efficient routes, supporting moving through borders with ease, and keeping on top of the essential administration tasks, enabling business owners like Padel Tech to focus on what they love.

But not for one FTSE 100 retailer who were absolutely committed to finding their way through it and saw it as an opportunity to exceed the competition. This is where the logistical know-how and experience from our team at Baxter Freight made the difference, sourcing a solution that ships goods, custom cleared to Germany within 16 hours.
