About Us
A global freight forwarding company with a difference
Making a World of Difference Since 1987
"Since the beginning, Wallis Shipping was founded on the belief to offer honest, reliable and exceptional service. The company quickly built a reputation for integrity and excellence within the shipping and logistics industry and is now know as one of the top UK freight forwarders.
From what started with just a small Colchester office and team of five has developed into larger teams spread across four sites in the UK; including Colchester, Rugby, Slough.
We have always believed in nurturing young talent and many of the team have remained for many years, which has bought experience and continuity for Wallis' clients.
Wallis has spent the last 35 years perfecting shipping methods, specialising in international ocean freight and airfreight, for all types of industries."

Whether you are a new or existing customer, we get to know you and your company to fully understand your systems so we can integrate as part of your supply chain.
Importing and exporting goods can create complex processes, systems and documentation, but with our highly skilled team and our in-house bespoke Exportease freight software we can take the time and hassle out of these logistics challenges for you.
What’s more we pride ourselves on speed of service (with cargo and communication), offering you the quickest transit times possible and excellent customer service, keeping in touch along the way with container tracking while your cargo moves from A to B.
