Pro-active Carrier Management Our Ops team works extremely closely with our carrier partners to provide the right capacity and make sure vehicles turn up when they are expected to. Single Collection Service For the ultimate in operational efficiency, we can provide you with a single collection service, so you only have one collection time and one vehicle for all of your parcels, no matter how many different carriers or services you want to use. We can also offer very competitive late or weekend collection times that are aligned to your pick and pack operation, to allow you to maximise trade before your web eCom cut-off time and prevent any parcel backlogs over the weekend. Capacity Planning for Peak Since 2001 we’ve been helping hundreds of maximise sales in their critical trading period every year; our Ops team has seen every success and every pitfall. We will work with you months in advance to help you forecast volumes, choose the right carrier service mix, plan vehicle capacity and lock down collection times to relieve the pressure and minimise any potential risk during this important time of year. We’re also able to leverage capacity in an increasingly tight domestic carrier market in line with your desired service-level and final mile solution. Logistics Contingency One of the most crucial, and valuable, roles that Operations plays is providing contingency. We know that nothing is certain; weather, road closures, carrier issues can all have an impact on customer deliveries. When the unexpected happens, we are here to put you back in control. Our scale and influence in the industry means we are able to tap into our wide-ranging industry connections to find solutions fast.

PLEASE NOTE: Transit Times are being impacted by delays caused by the Brexit changes. Brexit has impacted distribution services from the UK to Europe as all shipments go through a formal customs clearance process. GFS are constantly reviewing the best options to limit any impact in service. Countries that are part of the EU are shown in bold.

TOP 50 Global destinations listed. GFS do ship to all Countries Worldwide. To discuss further destinations, please get in touch. Transit times are delivery aims – this means the majority of historical shipments on this service have been delivered within this time window. Shipments may not be delivered within this time frame due to unforeseen delays, which includes customs. Transit times are from receipt of shipment at the UK hub of GFS International.
