Newell & Wright Group

Container & Haulage Logistics, Freight Forwarding & Specialised Logistics

In 1974, Frank Newell and Paul Wright formed Newell & Wright Transport. In those early days, we were a very small general haulage company, operating from rented premises. Over the following years we have grown substantially in size, resulting in the company changing premises three times before moving to the current 6.5 acre freehold site at Tinsley, Sheffield in 1987. The same year NWT Freight Forwarding was formed enabling us to offer our customers a variety of other freight solutions. These days, the Newell & Wright group has an annual turnover of in excess of £50 million and an excellent financial status.

We employ over 300 personnel, many of whom have remained with the company as we have expanded. We can attribute our growth and success to delighting our customers, old and new, with the value for money and excellent all round services that we provide.
