Within the increasingly sophisticated world of logistics there’s still one simple goal – to get goods where they need to be, when they need to be there.
For MI Transport in Northampton, that means offering everything from dedicated same-day courier services right through to international deliveries across the globe, operating nationwide, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
The business runs a fleet of vehicles of all shapes and sizes, including small vans, short and long wheel-base vans, Luton box vans, 7.5 tonne and 18 tonne courier vehicles, and Artics, backed up by a team of experienced drivers. The family-run company’s smaller management team also means that it can be reactive and flexible, reacting dynamically to clients’ requirements.
Close attention has been paid over the past few years not only to maintaining service levels during challenging times, but also on strengthening relationships with clients to provide the reassurance they need in their service provider.
Warren Boxford, CEO at MI Transport, said:
“Ever since the pandemic, and with the changes brought about by Brexit, the logistics sector has faced some major challenges. Our approach was to simply pursue steady and sustainable growth to give our customers the service they are looking for.
“We have invested in building a strong sales department and that has positioned us well to scale effectively and make more of an impact within the industry.”

Warren added:
“Logistics trends and the pressures and challenges that brings means, unfortunately, that it is highly likely that more hauliers will struggle over the next year or so. It will be difficult for a business without sturdy foundations to survive in the current climate and that’s why we have worked so hard to put processes in place to strengthen MI Transport so we’re ready to support customers.
“As a family company, family values are at the heart of everything we do. We have tried to create a workforce where everyone feels like they belong and that they work in an environment where they feel safe and valued.
“In addition, we’ve built in increasing flexibility so that we are ready to respond to customers’ needs at the drop of a hat. When they need to get their goods somewhere, it is imperative to their business that those deliveries are carried out when they need them.
“The size of our fleet today, and the calibre of our management team, drivers and warehouse staff, and their dedication to doing a great job, will see us in a good place to meet customer demands, whether that’s unexpected peaks, preparing for their busiest times, or getting their goods through international customs points in some of the most challenging circumstances.”
