About us
Since our foundation Unsworth have been embracing change by adapting to meet challenges and turn them into opportunities for our clients. Exploring new technology to unload ships, after the introduction of containerisation. Launching our leading consolidation services, when China acceded to the WTO. Innovating packaging technology to revolutionise car transport and digitalisation in the last two decades. And putting the customer at the heart of everything we do since 1974. Our success in consistently delivering the highest levels of service has been instrumental in our continuous growth. And while our group turnover may be approaching £50m, we remain an independent family business, with the same commitment to our customers and colleagues. Global LCL consolidation is Unsworth’s flagship service. The strength, scope and quality of our LCL consolidation product is recognised internationally and is the reason why so many of the world’s leading freight forwarders have been entrusting their cargo to Unsworth for four decades, with import and export services from over 1000 origins and destinations. Unsworth global freight solutions encompass road, sea and air, under the care of the Unsworth team and our global network of 220 offices in 80 countries. Our customer service teams and technology give you complete visibility and control of your supply chain, which means you never have to ask. You just know.

As we mark International Day of Charity, we want to take a moment to highlight our ongoing partnership with Eat or Heat, a charity dedicated to supporting families who face the heart-wrenching choice between paying their heating bills or putting food on the table. We are committed to regularly donating food and other essentials to local food banks supported by Eat or Heat. Our team comes together to collect and deliver these donations, helping to ensure that families in our community have access to the basic necessities they need. We are incredibly proud of our collaboration with Eat or Heat and the impact it has on those in need. But there’s always more that can be done. On this International Day of Charity, we encourage everyone to consider how they can contribute—whether through donations, volunteering, or spreading awareness. Together, we can make a difference. 💙 #InternationalDayOfCharity #EatOrHeat #CommunitySupport #GivingBack

Devastating flooding across Bangladesh has hit key infrastructure, including roads, railways, and bridges, severely disrupting the Dhaka-Chittagong highway, the main route for cargo. While Chittagong Port is still operational, its efficiency is greatly reduced due to surrounding floodwaters with flooded roads causing major delays. Our team is closely monitoring the situation and is here to help you navigate these challenges. We are committed to finding the best possible solutions to minimise the impact on your supply chain and ensure that your cargo reaches its destination safely and as promptly as conditions allow. #SupplyChainNews #FreightChallenges #LogisticsChallenges #Bangladesh #ChittagongPort #PortChallenges #Unsworth
