History

In 1985 Stephen Kennedy first launched Straight Freight (Manchester) as an unaccompanied trailer operator and Freight Forwarder that could offer a transport service from the UK to Holland and Belgium managing the services from his garage at home.

Over 25 years they became recognized as first class providers of transportation services within the Freight Sector both at home and abroad. As a family ran business their dedication and commitment and their ability to offer premium services at low rates kept customer loyal and attracted new customers constantly. It is was always their aim build long term relationships and keep operating costs at the lowest possible levels for the customers.

The company mission – “to tailor services to meet the needs and expectations of our customers is paramount to our success both now and in the future.”

It is by effectively meeting customers' needs that Straight Freight, now known as Straight Freight (Worldwide) Ltd has undergone considerable expansion and is now able to offer land, sea and air freight services across Europe and Scandinavia.

Operating 7 days a week and transporting a wide variety of cargo from textiles and plastics to chemicals and hazardous materials, we have proved that no requirement is beyond our capabilities.

"We've always believed that listening to the customer and delivering exactly what they expect is paramount to the business. Here at Straight Freight (Worldwide) we strive to maintain high levels of satisfaction, professionalism and loyalty."
