Air freight revenue is up by 20% on last year’s figures while shipments increased by 7% and volume increased by 19% compared to last year.

The company’s sea freight division also had a positive year with turnover up by 11% on last year.

Hellmann UK also saw perishables and beverages logistics exceed budget, continuing to develop in line with respective plans put into place

“We’re looking to build on our success and take our positive approach into what could also prove to be a challenging 2015. However, we are confident that if we continue to work and develop as we have then the next year will see us maintain our progression and produce similarly positive results.”
