Telford firm ambitious to build on its current success
G Force Express Limited, a family-run logistical specialist firm in Shropshire, has achieved record turnover just two years after a management buyout.
The Telford-based company increased its income from £100,000 in its first year to just under £7 million in its second year.
G Force, which provides pallet and parcel deliveries, warehousing and international distribution, was initially set up by Sam and three family members in 1993 to provide parcel courier services.
It has grown its team from a handful of staff to 42 and increased its fleet from three vehicles to 39 as its portfolio of services and customer base has grown.
In 2023 it was bought out by managing director Sam Ravenscroft and director Richard Marshall in 2023.
Looking forward to the future
Sam said: “As a business, we’ve developed to be able to offer our customers every service, from parcels, pallets and storage to dedicated distribution and international logistics, which has aided the growth of the business.”
He added: “It has also enabled G Force Express to also support the growth and success of our customers as they build their own businesses and require additional services.
“We are still very much a family-run business and we’re immensely proud of the fact; it reflects in our staff and our customer retention, as we maintain our family feel of personalised customer service and being honest in what we do.”
Richard said G Force is now in the market for a four-acres plot and a 400,000 sq ft warehouse to deliver the next phase of G Force Express.
The firm recently added six new G Force Express and Pallet-Track dual-branded trailers to its fleet.
