Our story
Europa Worldwide Group is one of the largest privately owned transport and logistics companies in the United Kingdom.Celebrating a Decade of Growth
We are celebrating a ‘Decade of Growth’, marking 10 years since Europa Worldwide Group’s acquisition by our CEO and transport entrepreneur, Andrew Baxter.
Andrew acquired Europa in August 2013, when the company employed just 400 people across nine UK branches and one international site in Hong Kong. Today, the business turns over £302m, an increase of 400 per cent and employs more than 1,400 people across 29 sites globally.
The business has come a long way, with major investment and innovations helping it set the pace in the market!
We now employ over 1400 people across 29 international sites and have a presence in more than 160 countries across the globe, offering Road, Air and Sea and Warehouse services. As an award-winning multimodal operator featured in The Sunday Times Track 250 for three years running, we are continuing to expand and innovate.
Formed by Andrew Dare in 1966, Europa was one of the very first transport companies to establish express services into mainland Europe. We began with just daily services to and from Italy, with one office in Barking in Essex and only four staff. Over time we expanded our road routes to cover all of mainland Europe, Eastern Europe and Scandinavia. Our working knowledge of what it takes to make a European Express Network of services function has established us as an innovator and leaders in our sector.
