Our History

The origins of Jordon Freight lie back in the 80s when the companies Directors were busy dealing with supplying customers driver-accompanied trailers to a backdrop of a bordered Europe. 

Typewriters, carbon copied forms, telexed ferry bookings, release notes and midnight trips back to the office were just some of ther aspects of a busy freight forwarding office in the 80s.  There were no PCs, no mobile phones, no satellite navigation, no email...

Controlling customers cargo demands, with bulk orders often placed at very short notice was the norm. The exhaustive nature of the business was balanced by the knowledge your efforts translated to a satisfied customer and the development of deep business relationships and personal friends.

As the introduction of technology made it's presence known offices became more efficient, quieter even.  Emails replaced phone calls, faxing notes from your PC replaced travelling to the telex, moving about in the office became almost redundant.

We found however that our Customers, rather than gaining from these advancements, were quite literally suffering quietly.  Having been brought up in an environment which nurtures relationships through ongoing contact we felt the rise of technology had led some to misinterpret customers needs. We felt  a necessity to strike a balance between harnessing technology and retaining personal service but through engagement, not assumption.  What did the Customer really want?

 

In 1999 after consultation with customers about their exact requirements we took our experience and our own personal ideals forward to develop Jordon Freight, a company we wished to firmly ground in personal service yet combine sensitively with high technology. For us the Customer would shape our business.

We believed it was always important to listen and understand our customers requirements completely and believed the only way was to spend quality time nurturing relationships.  We took the same attentiveness with our suppliers and staff who were and still are fundamental to the success of our business.

Fast forward to present day and we are happy to report we are still listening, engaging and forging close and loyal relationships.  We also continue to invest heavily in IT and continue to commit to our customers service, communication and visibility requirements.

During this time competition has increased and we have repositioned ourselves for the next great push of quality and service levels to ensure our customers will always receive the best service out there.  The company has undergone major structural changes and emerged with a firm strategic plan and vision to cater for increased business demands, exciting new services and sustained growth in the coming years.

These are positive steps in turbulent times where the fundamental value of personal service is still underpinning everything we do.

We hope you experience a high level of satisfaction working with us.
