About Blacksmith Freight Services

Blacksmith Freight Services is a privately owned international freight forwarder, with offices based in Manchester and London. We set out on our journey 25 years ago to help businesses optimise their operations through flexible, reliable and high-quality logistics and transportation. We’ve not stood still since. In 2011, we opened a Heathrow Airport office which has since moved to larger premises to accommodate further growth, and we are now the largest international freight forwarder at Manchester Airport World Freight Terminal, serving a wide range of clients.

about-page

We offer a personal and customised service to every customer, ensuring they meet their objectives, satisfy their customer’s needs and optimise their supply chain. We remain flexible to allow our clients to thrive in an ever-changing and hyper-connected world and we are committed to continually reviewing the latest technologies to understand how they can benefit our customers.

We know that today’s successful 3PL is built on trust, transparency and visibility. Through our enhanced tracking capabilities, valuable reporting and analysis and increased efficiency, we have a truly client-centric focus in everything that we do. That’s why we remain independent; small enough to know each of our customers by name, but large enough to be able to meet their ever-increasing supply chain demands.
