Profile: Europa European Express
We’re an express operator with a freight forwarding ability,” says Malcolm Smith, MD of
Europa Worldwide Services. It is a potent combination which saw turnover grow by 6% to œ52m (E58.8) last year. And the judges in the IFW Freighting Industry Awards 2001 were sufficiently impressed by some of the recent initiatives going on across Europa to give the
company the Express Operator of the Year title a couple of months ago. Subject of a management buyout last year, Europa was launched back in 1975. Its strength was road
distribution until the early 1990s and, although its sea and air freight departments are growing fast, this remains the linchpin of the operation. Of 6,000 international shipments made per week, 5,000 are by road.
