The ILG Story
International Logistics Group was born in 1990 with a single delivery vehicle and a single-minded commitment to help its customers succeed. From day one we focused on nurturing mutually productive, long-term relationships rooted in trust. We championed service excellence, best value for money and a relentless attention to the smallest detail. After three decades of ups, downs and sustained growth, we continue to follow the same uncompromising mission and values.
Read our valuesHow We’ve Grown
We started in fulfilment with a modest 5000 sq ft warehouse and just five people. Consistent growth followed and in 2000 we partnered with a first mover in online sales to place ILG at the forefront of the embryonic e-commerce fulfilment sector.
In 2011 we bought a London delivery company that serviced mostly fashion customers. This was our first step to specialisation in fashion and beauty fulfilment. Seven years later, we became part of global 3PL Yusen Logistics, a move that ensured stability for our customers in the wake of Brexit and ensuing pandemic. By opening our first facility in Poland in 2020, we were able to offer our UK customers an EU-based fulfilment solution and overcome the difficulty of delivering orders to mainland Europe post-Brexit.
In 2024 we acquired GFS Logistics, pioneers in multi-carrier delivery services and carrier-management technology. Today we employ over 600 people and service more than 350 delivery and fulfilment customers from 12 facilities across the UK and EU.

Yesterday, we were delighted to attend the Tones of Beauty event in London. It was a fantastic opportunity to connect with brands across the beauty industry and hear a wide range of perspectives on the trends, challenges and opportunities shaping the sector. A particular highlight was the insightful CEW panel, which shared valuable perspectives on the evolving beauty retail landscape and sparked some thought-provoking discussions. Hearing such honest insights and sharing ideas with fellow industry professionals reinforces the value of collaboration as the industry continues to evolve. Thank you to the organisers for hosting such an engaging event – we’re looking forward to continuing the conversations. ๐ #WeareILG #TonesOfBeauty

Who says logistics has to be boring? ๐ We had a bit of fun with this one, but the message is simple: whatever your logistics needs, there’s a very good chance we can help. Whether it’s: ๐ฆE-Commerce Fulfilment ๐ฆB2B Fulfilment ๐ฆUK & EU Fulfilment ๐ฆCarrier Management ๐ฆGift Wrapping ๐ฆKitting ๐ฆReturns ๐ฆCustomer Services ๐ฆPersonalisation …we’ve got the expertise, experience and team to make it happen. The dancing might be questionable, but our logistics certainly aren’t. ๐ So yes… we really can do this, and we really can do that. If you’re looking for a logistics partner that makes things simple (and isn’t afraid to have a little fun along the way), we’d love to hear from you. Get in touch with the ILG team today. ๐ #WeareILG

After seven months of renovation, we’re finally back home. ๐กโจ It’s been a long journey, with teams working from different locations while the work was underway, so it’s fantastic to have everyone back together again in one space. The finished result is incredible, creating an environment that’s modern, collaborative and ready for the future. A huge thank you to everyone involved in bringing the space to life, with a special shoutout to Mike Jones for all the hard work, dedication and effort that went into making this transformation happen. We can’t wait to make the most of it! ๐

๐จ Less than one week until the EU de minimis rule changes. On 1 July 2026, the โฌ150 duty-free threshold disappears. For many UK businesses selling into the EU, that means: ๐ Higher import duties ๐ฆ Increased fulfilment costs ๐ฐ Reduced margins We’ve analysed real customer shipping data to show just how significant the impact could be – and why many businesses are moving to EU fulfilment before the changes take effect. Swipe to see the figures. #WeareILG

๐ค ๐ A little adventure-inspired look at what we do best. We’ve taken inspiration from a familiar story to highlight some of the ways ILG supports growing brands. Boot personalisation? We’ve got it covered. Orders picked by the chosen ones? Absolutely. Fulfilment that seems to happen when no one’s looking? Pretty much. And if it feels like there’s a snake in your boot when it comes to your current logistics operation… it might be time for a chat. To new markets and beyond! ๐๐ฆ #WeareILG #Personalisation #OrderPicking #CustomerExperience #BehindTheScenes

Giving Back to Our Charity of the Year ๐ On 11th June, as part of the volunteer days offered by ILG and GFS, Kristine and Sambi . spent the day at Chestnut Tree Houseโs Regional Distribution Centre, helping to sort and prepare donated items for distribution across their charity shops. From clothing and accessories to household goods, every item processed played a part in supporting children with life-limiting conditions and their families. It was a hands-on day that gave a real insight into the incredible work that happens behind the scenes to turn donations into vital funding. A huge thank you to Nicky and the warehouse team for making them feel so welcome and for showing us the impact that even a single day of volunteering can have. We’re proud to support Chestnut Tree House as our Charity of the Year and look forward to continuing our fundraising and volunteering efforts throughout the year. ๐งก
