LHR Global Logistics

LHR Global Logistics has been operating since 2007, headquartered close to its namesake airport in Harmondsworth, just west of Heathrow. It started out as an international express operator, built around time-sensitive delivery of documents and parcels worldwide, and that core service is still central to the business. From there the company has sustained double-digit growth year over year across customers, consignments, and revenue, broadening into airfreight, customs clearance, and dedicated courier services along the way.

As an IATA-accredited agent, LHR Global has round-the-clock access to the world’s airlines, and it describes itself as unique in being able to clear shipments via any mode, at any hour, through any UK port. One division that’s grown significantly is its aerospace arm, handling out-of-gauge and time-critical aircraft parts, the kind of work where a delayed delivery can mean a grounded plane. A recent case study describes the team mobilizing during peak summer travel season to collect and deliver an urgent aircraft part for a manufacturer, the sort of job the business was essentially built to handle.

The company attributes its growth to a short set of stated values: one size doesn’t fit all, professional and courteous service, knowing every customer by name rather than treating them as a number, tracking every consignment from booking through completion, and pricing fairly while still delivering added value. Its management team brings decades of experience in transportation and supply chain, and that knowledge is built into the company’s systems, procedures, and staff training.

Today LHR Global runs its own vehicle fleet, warehousing, and stock management facilities, backed by an established global network of partners and suppliers. Services span international express, airfreight, customs clearance, and dedicated couriers, with clients able to have shipments stored, picked, packed, refurbished, collected, delivered, or handled however the job requires.
