Logistics UK reacts to support for business of energy bills

Thursday 08 September 2022

Today’s government announcement of support for business on energy bills is welcomed by the logistics industry, which needs to keep operating in order to support the rest of the UK's economy. It will now be our priority to work closely with government to confirm the details of the support available and secure the industry's long term fuel security, while ensuring that our members can continue to keep the UK trading effectively.

Logistics UK is one of the UK’s leading business groups, representing logistics businesses which are vital to keeping the UK trading, and more than seven million people directly employed in the making, selling and moving of goods. With COVID-19, Brexit, new technology and other disruptive forces driving change in the way goods move across borders and through the supply chain, logistics has never been more important to UK plc. Logistics UK supports, shapes and stands up for safe and efficient logistics, and is the only business group which represents the whole industry, with members from the road, rail, sea and air industries, as well as the buyers of freight services such as retailers and manufacturers whose businesses depend on the efficient movement of goods.
