GET INVOLVED, BECOME A MEMBER OF LHUK TODAY
Wednesday, 12 October 2016
We are a
membership group committed to the development of the Sheffield City Region as
one of the UK’s leading logistics, warehousing and distribution sites.
Bringing
public and private sector organisations together, the group has been
established to promote the numerous benefits of the region as a logistics hub
and international gateway, build supply chain connections and develop and
improve activity with other city regions such as Leeds and Manchester.
Why the Sheffield City Region?
At the
geographical centre of the UK, the Sheffield City Region provides the ideal
location for logistics, warehousing and distribution companies looking for fast
access to the UK’s largest markets and population centres, as well as
international territories, too.
The area
has direct access to the UK’s motorway network, at a central
north-south/east-west interchange (M1/A1/M18-M62/M180), and is home to
Doncaster’s air and rail freight terminals. The UK’s largest sea port by
tonnage – the Humber port – is also within close proximity.
This
multimodal transport provision provides businesses with fast and flexible
access both nationally and internationally, by road, rail, air and sea. The
LHUK Group exists to promote and build on these transport links, ensuring the
logistics sector in the region continues to flourish.
Why become a member of Logistics Hub UK?
The
Sheffield City Region’s logistics hub has been identified as one of most exciting
prospects in the country, thanks to the fast-paced rate of development and the
connections being made both nationally and globally.
Joining
the group means you and your business can be a part of that development,
helping to shape the region’s logistics industry, forge strong links with
worldwide supply chains and influence the national policy and planning agenda.
You’ll
be involved in regular industry-focused events, with the chance to discuss the
opportunities and challenges facing the logistics sector with your peers and
industry leaders.
And,
with access to marketing support from our team, you’ll be able to raise the
profile of your business further, promoting your staff and your services to a
wider audience.
Who can join?
The LHUK
Group is open to any business working within the logistics, warehousing and
distribution industry in the UK.
Different
levels of membership mean companies of any size can join the group and play a
part in developing the region as a logistics center of excellence.
