Meet Coot
Freight Ltd.

From our team to yours, welcome.

Coot – Fulica atra is an all-black, medium-sized water bird and a member of the rail family Rallidae.

Coot Freight Ltd. is a privately-owned international freight forwarding company offering professional transportation services to worldwide destinations by land, air, and sea.

The co-founders of Coot Freight Ltd. spent years working in the freight transportation industry, building their expertise by learning as much as possible through various freight forwarders and gaining hands-on, in-depth industry experience. The duo eventually grew tired of working for other companies and decided to take their knowledge to the next level and begin an entrepreneurial journey.

Thus, Coot Freight Ltd. was born in 2011, starting out in a London office before quickly expanding to a second office in Rotterdam by 2016. Now, in 2023, Coot Freight is taking the freight forwarding industry by storm and carving out a leadership role in the UK market.

Coot Freight Ltd. was founded on the idea of freight forwarding made simple, personable, flexible, and fast, and our mission is to be a one-stop-shop for freight shipments to worldwide destinations.

Working with Coot Freight Ltd. is like gaining an extra friend who is swift, efficient, and reliable.

We also specialize in global multimodal shipments to and from the United Kingdom and the Netherlands.
