  • 2024 has been a year of significant events that have reshaped the global supply chain landscape. The crisis in the Red Sea disrupted maritime trade, while strikes, political shifts, and a shortage of refrigerated containers added to supply chain bottlenecks. Despite these challenges, Davies Turner achieved growth and success, including opening a new logistics fulfilment centre, signing contracts with iconic brands, and winning awards. As we look towards 2025, Davies Turner is well-positioned to face new challenges and continue supporting clients with innovative logistics solutions. Wishing you a happy and prosperous New Year!

  • Earlier this year, we were delighted to win premium seating for six to attend the PDC World Darts Championship during the ASOS Gala Dinner auction in London.   All the proceeds from the auction were given to the "ASOS Foundation," a charitable trust that operates independently. ASOS.com, together with its suppliers and customers, provided generous support to the foundation.   On Friday, our colleagues who work on the ASOS account, had a fantastic time when they attended the Alexandra Palace in London, where the 2024/2025 darts championship is taking place. As you can see from the pictures, Stephen, Tony, Dawn, Gary, James and Oliver thoroughly enjoyed themselves! #ASOSfoundation #worlddartschampionship

    We have some great news to share with you! We are thrilled to announce that rail rates have decreased, which has enabled us to lower our China to UK LCL import rates by $20 per 1cbm / 500kgs. This reduction will apply to departures starting from 24th December, just in time for the anticipated limitations in ocean freight space leading up to Chinese New Year. Take advantage of our fast, reliable, and affordable rail services with four LCL departures per week and avoid disruptions in ocean shipping! For more information about our rail services, click here: https://lnkd.in/dvUBNCx Transit time information is based on departed Xi'an rail hub to arrival UK port. #railfreight #chinaimport #logistics #expressservice

    Tony Cole, Ocean Director at Davies Turner, nominated the charity Sense to benefit from one of our monthly dress-down days at our Dartford hub. These events raise funds for good causes, and Tony kindly matched the amount raised. Sense works tirelessly to support the deaf-blind community and individuals with complex disabilities, helping them to communicate and engage with the world around them. Tony presented the donation to Nicola Edwards from the corporate team at Sense. We hope our donation can offer Sense some additional support and resources ❤️ #charity #fundraising
