SEKO Logistics investing in new Heathrow facility
SEKO Logistics is investing in a new 22,000 sq ft airfreight and omni-parcel services facility close to London Heathrow.
In a statement published last week, SEKO said that the move comes as the company’s revenues are set to top £100m in the UK in 2018 for the first time.
SEKO said that, now that the airport expansion plan has been given the green light, Heathrow will “become an even more vital gateway for a plethora of new cross-border trading opportunities for both British and international businesses”.
Keith O’Brien, SEKO’s Chief Operating Officer – EMEA, commented: “We are growing organically mainly on the strength of existing customer recommendations as well as our specialist expertise, expanding global footprint and reputation for helping British companies to quickly access the lucrative cross-border eCommerce space, which has been our biggest growth area in the past 2-3 years. This will continue because of the international demand for British brands. Our decision to invest in this new facility close to Heathrow will make the cross-border delivery process even easier for our customers.”
SEKO opened its first UK location in 2003 and now operates eight facilities, including a 225,000 sq ft logistics centre in Milton Keynes from where it delivers a range of omnichannel services for global order fulfilment, delivery management, returns solutions and e-commerce for leading brands.
