U-Freight on the move in Ireland

As part of a revised business strategy, U-Freight’s associate in Ireland, EFL International Distribution and subsidiary, SkanTrans Ireland has moved its freight handling and distribution activities to a 7,000 sq m facility close to Dublin airport.


Despite the global downturn in general trading, the company’s existing warehouse facility adjacent to the company’s head office at Santry, Dublin was not large enough to support the volume of trailers and containers that require loading and unloading.


The new warehouse is located at ECS House, Willisborough Industrial Estate, Clonshaugh, Dublin 17 and will allow EFL to better serve its fellow associates within the U-Freight Group.


EFL International Distribution Ltd has been an agent associate of the U Freight Group for over 20 years in Ireland and together with its subsidiary, SkanTrans Ireland Ltd, provides full operational and administrative services covering Customs Clearance, EU trailer and short sea container, air freight plus FCL and LCL ocean freight operations on a global basis.

“We are delighted with our new warehouse location which offers excellent access to Dublin International airport and will allow us to continue to improve our service capabilities,” commented Chris Radley, Director of EFL International Distribution.


“The new warehouse is the hub of all activities in some form or another from cross docking, labelling, location, security, to full stock control and inventory reporting plus pick and pack operations.”
