Service
Integrated logistics management built around your business.
Overview
Some customers do not want to buy movements one at a time. Freight forwarding is where we take on the whole chain — mode selection, documentation, customs and the handovers in between.

Why Johnson's
One partner across modes and geographies — no finger-pointing, no gaps.
Regular reporting on cost and service performance, with quarterly reviews.
Declarations, transit documentation and duty guidance arranged through approved customs partners alongside the transport booking.
In depth
Johnson's Haulage manages end-to-end supply chain programmes for UK businesses, connecting ocean, air, road and warehousing into one accountable service. We plan and procure each movement through our approved partner network, then measure and report on it — giving you the data and continuous improvement needed to control cost and protect service levels.
We plan, book and monitor every movement across your carrier base — road, sea, air and rail — through a single point of contact. You get one point of accountability, regular status reporting on each shipment and monthly performance reviews against agreed KPIs.
Full CDS-compliant import and export declarations, PVA (Postponed VAT Accounting), duty deferment, inward/outward processing relief, and origin claims under UK–EU TCA and other free trade agreements are arranged through our approved customs partners and filed through HMRC systems, so your goods clear without avoidable delay.
We model your inbound flows, DC footprint and outbound distribution to identify consolidation, lane-tender and mode-shift opportunities. Every engagement includes a quarterly business review with hard savings, service and carbon metrics.
Milestone updates, exception alerts, digital proof of delivery and consolidated invoicing keep finance, operations and customer-service teams working from the same information. A secure customer portal is currently in development.
