Europa teams up with Loxx to upscale German operation
Europa Road, has strengthened its German operation through a new partnership with the Gelsenkirchen-based forwarding company Loxx. The partnership will enable Europa to upscale its German operation by offering a further daily service between the UK and Germany – bringing its total to seven daily services in each direction.
Operations Director at Europa Worldwide Group Dan Cook said: “Loxx is an independent and privately owned business, of a similar size to Europa, with a similar dedication to European road freight – so it is a perfect partner to help us boost our presence and reach in Germany.
“Loxx also appealed to us as a partner of choice because they already work with a number of our existing partners across Europe, which makes the relationship a smooth one from the start. The Ruhr region is one of the most active areas in Europe with a high level of imports and exports alike – so it makes sense to us to share our business here between two partners to enhance our service levels and increase competitiveness.”
Europa’s 1Hub headquarters in Dartford offers daily groupage lines to 10 UK distribution centres, so exports and imports only take 48 hours from the Ruhr area to the majority of Britain and vice versa.
