Abacus International Shipping was established in 1985. We have a highly experienced team. We started as specialists in import and export and freight forwarding. Our expertise grew alongside our clients to embrace sea and air freight, developing close ties with agents around the world. We established our own fleet and despatch vehicles daily for European destinations. We are always committed to the best transit times and most effective service for our customers. As such we never send unaccompanied trailers but ensure that every load has a dedicated driver. Many of our customers have been kind enough to stay with Abacus for years and even decades. They tell us they value the personal service and commitment which we bring to their work, whether it is small parcel travelling miles or a container crossing the world. In 2016 we joined TPN - THE Pallet Network to extend our service offering into domestic and international palletised freight distribution. TPN, like Abacus, values service excellence and a commitment to long-term relationships.
