ree

Global logistics company John Good Logistics Limited, trading as Good Logistics, has strengthened its European road freight offering by acquiring 100 percent of the share capital of Inter-Ways Limited.

Based in Doncaster, Inter-Ways is a family-owned freight forwarding business that focuses primarily on road freight to Eastern and Northern Europe. Over the past 20 years, it has built an enviable reputation in these markets, through its unwavering focus on service excellence.


Part of the family-owned business, the Denholm Group, Good Logistics has built its reputation as a preferred supply chain partner. It delivers forward-thinking, value-added solutions and has become an integral part of its customers’ supply chains. Its comprehensive supply chain management capabilities include global freight forwarding, customs clearance, CO2 tracking, warehousing, haulage and port and liner agency.


Alan Platt, Divisional Managing Director of Good Logistics, said, “Like Good Logistics, Inter-Ways has a solid focus on superior customer service. With its extensive European road freight network developed over 20 years, it is a perfect fit with Good Logistics. The acquisition of Inter-Ways will amplify our skills and knowledge, which, combined with digital innovation, help set Good Logistics apart from other logistics providers. Inter-Ways has a great team of people who are committed to the business and its customers and I am delighted to welcome them to the Good Logistics team.”

Justyna Polom-Wilkinson, former Director and owner of Inter-Ways, commented, “I started Inter-Ways in 2003 and, with the support and dedication of a great team of people, the business has flourished to become a trusted logistics provider to our customers. I am proud to see Inter-Ways begin a new chapter. With its size, scale and, of course, strong family values, choosing Good Logistics as Inter-Ways’ new owner was a great decision.”


Ian Baker, Branch Manager of Inter-Ways, said, “At Inter-Ways, we have truly put our customers at the heart of our operations for the past 20 years. Becoming part of Good Logistics creates an exciting new dynamic for both teams, as we integrate Inter-Ways’ specialist road freight knowledge with Good Logistics’ existing road freight specialists which, combined with digital innovation, is a cornerstone of its service delivery.”


The acquisition of Inter-Ways was signed on 31st October 2023. Inter-Ways will continue to trade under its own brand for the foreseeable future and operate from its offices at Doncaster Finningley Airport.
