Logistics drives growth
Campaigns
Logistics underpins our economy and is fundamental to our way of life. It supplies our hospitals, schools, factories, construction sites, shops and homes with everything they need, everywhere, every day – nothing moves without it.
What do we do?
Logistics is one of the UK’s largest economic sectors and employers, with its key hubs providing a catalyst for further growth and investment, helping places to thrive. It comprises more than 200,000 businesses, contributes £185 billion to the economy each year and employs 8% of the UK workforce.

To unlock the UK’s potential, the logistics sector is calling for
The efficiency of logistics and the growth potential of the economy are completely intertwined. Due to this relationship, Oxford Economics has found that getting the policy and infrastructure environment right for logistics would unlock up to £8 billion a year in productivity-led growth. However, we are not currently going in the right direction. The UK fell from 4th to 19th place in the World Bank Logistics Performance index over the past decade, largely as a result of border friction and underinvestment in transport corridors.

What we are focused on

What we are focused on
Fair transition to a green economy
The logistics sector is embracing the decarbonisation agenda and is committed to playing its part to help the UK achieve net zero. We are calling for a national logistics transport and energy network, which must cover the energy infrastructure required for all freight transport modes.
What we are focused on
Skills partnership to support a thriving sector
The logistics sector is investing in recruitment and skills to respond to the rapidly changing needs of businesses. The sector needs skills partnerships that reflect the breadth of high-quality roles across logistics, which support aspiration and resilience in communities across the country.
What we are focused on
Trade as a driver of innovation and productivity
Logistics enables all international trade, but barriers to trade risk impacting the UK’s innovation and productivity. The logistics sector is calling for trade to be backed as a driver of progress, ensuring it is as frictionless as possible and that the UK enjoys improved international connectivity.
What we are focused on
