Northamptonshire benefits from a unique location which places it at the heart of the road and rail network.
With the M1, A1, M6, A14 and M40 all within easy reach, the Northamptonshire area has many logistics businesses whether in Northampton, Daventry, Rugby, Corby, DIRFT near Rugby or Magna Park at Lutterworth. Added to this is the proximity of the main railway lines and access to important freight terminals such as Felixstowe and Harwich.
From warehousing, haulage, postal services, multi-drop and courier services to associated businesses such as those supplying racking and storage or even tractor/trailer services, there is a multitude of businesses operating in the sector.
There are many challenges for the logistics sector including bureaucracy, margin erosion and the pressures placed on operators by ‘just in time’ deliveries.

Our clients operate in markets such as :
- Warehouses & Retail Stores

By definition, logistics needs people, one where people are at the heart of the operation…and where there are people, there are often employment issues. Our employment team has experience in advising employers in the logistics sector in Northamptonshire and across the UK.
We have helped many logistics based businesses both large and small : from the likes of Dachser with nearly 25,000 employees, Anglo Turkish International Limited, and United Pallet Network to name a few. Other ways we can help include Commercial contracts, Terms and conditions, Debt recovery, Commercial Litigation and Corporate (including acquisitions and disposals).
Our Legal-500 recognised Commercial Property Team has a wealth of experience advising those working in the logistics sector, whether it be short-term access requirements, new leases, assignments or lease extensions through to freehold purchases or even the acquisition of land for the development of the client’s own bespoke logistics centre. We understand that property, be it warehousing and distribution centres or offices, is at the centre of any logistics company and the need for prompt efficient and easy to follow property advice is essential.
