About:

Waltham Logistics is a warehouse and transport company that is run by a family that has served Grimsby’s food industry for over 50 years. Grimsby is known as ‘Europe’s Food Town’.

We are strategically based centrally on the east coast of the UK next to the Humber ports of Immingham, Hull and Grimsby and can reach a UK market of 40 million people within a four hour drive time.

The Humber is also known as the ‘Gateway to Europe’ and we are within a 24 hour reach of a European market of 170 million.

This means we are strategically located for the storage of goods being both imported and exported.

What makes us unique?

For our local customers…

1. RAPID RESPONSE &QUICK DELIVERY OF GOODS. We are unique in that we respond very quickly to our clients when they require products from the warehouse. In this industry if you require something from a warehouse you usually have to give at least 24 hours’ notice – our normal delivery time is within 2-3 hours of request but we offer a rapid delivery service, from receiving a request to delivering into a local Grimsby factory can be made within the hour.

2. VISIBILITY OF STOCK AT ALL TIMES. All of our customers are given a portal on our website where they can view in real-time, 24/7, all the stock they hold with us. They never lose ‘visibility’ of their stock.

3. REDUCING COSTS. We never ask our customers to pay for warehouse space they do not use. They get charged only for the pallet spaces they use and are not contracted to pay a certain amount of pallets spaces. (In the industry you usually are contracted to pay for ‘x’ amount of pallet spaces for ‘x’ months - years whether you use them or not.)

For our clients in Europe and beyond…

4. STRATEGICALLY SITUATED. We are placing their product at the centre of the UK – super important with Brexit looming.

5. They have their own online portal access for monitoring their stock so despite being thousands of miles away, they never lose sight of their stock.

6. #3 applies to them also.

All our customers can see their stock and access it quickly. This means that we act like a warehouse on their premises but they are not encumbered with the cost in time and finances in running their own warehouse that may not operate at capacity.
