Continuing their period of rapid growth, the logistics company is launching its signature freight and fulfillment solutions in Dallas, Texas – chosen for its size, central US position and high level of commercial activity.

The in-house developed transportation and warehousing management system is universal, handling job management by providing status updates and customer access via an online portal. Through this, clients will have full visibility of quotes, active jobs and invoices in one place all whilst working in tandem with knowledgeable, local teams offering an excellent customer-centric service."

Leading their US sales division is Starr Bollefer, who joined as Vice President of Sales in March 2024. Bollefer has expressed excitement for the company's US journey and emphasized their commitment to delivering exceptional service and value to American customers.

John Munnelly, Chief Operating Officer at Speedy Freight said, "Expansion to the USA has always been a goal for the business, and thanks to our outstanding year on year growth, we feel now is the perfect time to open our first North American branch.

"The high level of commercial activity in and around Dallas-Fort Worth makes it the perfect location for Speedy Freight, and we're confident our team will hit the ground running with their personalized logistics service offerings."

Mike Smith, Chief Executive Officer at Speedy Freight said, "This is a massive milestone for Speedy Freight, and we see a huge opportunity in North America for future expansion.
