Big enough to cope, small enough to care

For more than 90 years we’ve been listening to our customers and continually modifying our service in line with their needs. Since 1934, our ongoing promise to our clients is to offer the speed and reliability of a large company, while maintaining the customer care of a smaller one.

The people and the vehicles, the locations and the technology – everything has changed over the decades, but the Welch Group endures – and there are key reasons why…

The people who make us exceptional

We’re a friendly, experienced team of reliable logistics professionals who are determined to get every job done on time and on budget.

Expect consistent support and a creative approach to problem solving, with some great company thrown into the mix.

Taking action now for a greener, more sustainable future

Rather than having a net zero division, our goal is for our whole organisation to work as carbon and energy efficiently as possible.

Leaving a cleaner, greener planet for the next generation is personal for us, and drives all our sustainability initiatives.

Our commitment to our ESG strategy means we can quantify the progress we make, tracking carbon and cost savings, and using them to inform further positive change in future.
