WHO WE ARE

Phil Plowman and Mike Wigley launched Orchid Transport in 1988 after many years in the transport industry, and together with Paul Nethercot, they direct Orchid Customer Services.

WHAT WE DO

We specialise in full load container haulage from Southampton and Felixstowe, and are developing services from London Gateway in conjunction with our Felixstowe operation. In addition to our port transport services, we have localised vehicles to support our customers use of rail into West Midlands and Leeds/Wakefield rail centres.
We make considerable use of rail as appropriate and have committed rail space to and from the West Midlands. Our vehicles can be deployed across the U.K. from serviced ports.

Orchid HQ & Midlands Operations are in Kenilworth, Warwickshire at the hub of the UK motorway network and close to Birmingham.Divisional operations are based on Felixstowe and Southampton.
