History
Established in London in 1996, Freight Europe (UK) Ltd has specialised in rail freight transport in conventional wagons, mainly between the UK and Continental Europe via the Channel Tunnel. We now offer freight services in the UK and from/to Europe through the Tunnel.

Our activity
We provide a full integrated logistic service* to most European countries related to various types of markets, ranging from steel to fast-moving consumer goods.

*A full integrated logistic service?
• Rail freight transport
• Road support
• Warehousing and handling

From any location in Europe, freight loads are monitored from despatch to final delivery as an integral part of the service, with direct links to tracking systems both within the UK and across the Channel.

New services from 2008
Now Freight Operating Company, we also offer train haulage in the U.K. as part as our rail freight services.
This diversification strategy allows us to expand our logistic services in the U.K. domestic market and to/from the continent.
