Circle Express acquire further business

FOLLOWING its recent success in acquiring the exclusive UK distribution business of Panalpina worldwide, Circle Express, reports further new business gains during the first half of the year. Among these are Anglo Overseas and Skymart Worldwide.

Anglo Overseas, manager Mahmood Malik, said: “We find Circle Express very flexible and adaptable, helping us to explore new customer sectors. Through their executive Tom Ryan, who has been particularly helpful, they have provided a valuable additional service to us in collecting our consignments from the airlines. We have now come to regard Circle as a close working partner, and would not hesitate in recommending them to others.”

Manchester-based Skymart Worldwide commercial director, Colin Gore, said: “We have to deliver a lot of time-sensitive consignments, and we are very pleased with the reliability and efficiency we get from Circle Express, ensuring the smooth running of our supply chain operations.”

Chris Coffey, Circle’s chief executive officer, added: “We enjoy close working relationships with all our customers, and, in many cases, we have become a strategic partner in their supply chain operations.”
