About Us

Founded in 1918 by Robert J. Johnson, our company began as a customs clearance brokerage in Liverpool, his home port. Since then, our business, now known as RJJ Freight, has expanded its services and geographical reach. Though our headquarters relocated to Felixstowe in 1990, our commitment to exceptional customer service remains unchanged.

Today, RJJ Freight stands as an independent freight forwarding company in the UK, offering worldwide shipping services. Our approach ensures seamless shipping and transport solutions for sea, air, and land transports to and from the UK, as well as for global cross trades. With a robust market presence and an unwavering commitment to excellence, our experienced team consistently delivers the highest standard of customer service.

As a family-run business, we uphold core principles that guide every aspect of our operations. Our reputation is built on a steadfast dedication to providing unparalleled customer service, underlined by our customer in focus attitude. We strive to offer our customers the products, solutions, and services they need at the most competitive prices, while also fostering a culture of passion and innovation.

Our vision is to stand out as the preferred option for international exporters and importers who prioritise working with an efficient, trusted, and independent logistics company, known for consistently delivering top-notch solutions and ensuring customer satisfaction.

From our headquarters in Felixstowe to our branch offices near key airports such as London Heathrow and Manchester, we handle thousands of shipments for hundreds of customers annually, connecting hundreds of locations worldwide. Our dedication to quality and professionalism has been recognised with full Authorised Economic Operator (AEO) status accredited by HMRC in the UK, highlighting our commitment to a secure supply chain and efficient customs controls.

Throughout our journey, we have invested in our people, empowering them to think creatively and find innovative solutions that exceed our customers’ expectations. This attitude remains at the core of our mission, driving us to continually strive for excellence in customer satisfaction.
