Logistics & Order Fulfilment in Europe
If you’re a UK brand looking to expand your customer-base in the EU, ILG makes it faster, easier and more cost-effective to fulfil your e-commerce orders. Four years on from Brexit, many UK companies still struggle to reach and retain EU customers due to cross-border delays and higher shipping costs.
With ILG you can free-up your EU fulfilment, ease admin and cut duty payments by relocating your stock to one of our fulfilment centres in Poland.

Grow Your EU Customer Base
ILG is helping dozens of UK brands overcome the logistical headaches caused by Brexit, and take full advantage of the huge EU e-commerce market. Alongside our 10 UK facilities, we run two high-spec fulfilment centres in Poland, including a new bespoke and highly sustainable 450,000 sq. ft. unit that opened in 2024.
Stocking in the EU:
“It made total sense for us to set up inside the EU as quickly as possible and fortunately ILG were working hard to get the warehouse in Wroclaw ready…”
Nick Pecorelli, Founder, Little Green Radicals
Your Perfect EU Fulfilment Hub
Strategically located in Western Poland at the heart of the EU, our fulfilment centres are close to the border with Germany (Europe’s biggest e-commerce market), within easy reach of Leipzig (home to many carrier hubs) and near the main rail freight connection to China.
Poland’s labour rates and operating costs are significantly below most other EU countries and with its excellent road infrastructure and highly skilled labour force, it is attracting significant foreign investment and rapidly growing its warehouse capacity.

Sustainable EU Fulfilment
Our new EU fulfilment centre boasts a huge range of sustainable features designed to reduce the impact of our activity on the environment. From energy-efficient lighting to biodiversity boosting initiatives, the ‘BREEAM Outstanding’ rated facility is set up to reduce carbon emissions by up to 50%.
The 450,000 sq. ft site expands our capabilities to sustainably fulfil from within the EU, removing Brexit-related issues for our customers and easing access to their EU consumers and retailers.

New Case Study!💙…
New Case Study!💙 Gisou, a sustainable beauty brand from the Netherlands, is known for its honey-infused hair and skincare products, loved by customers across Europe and the US. In 2021, post-Brexit regulations made access to the UK market more complex—just as online demand was reaching new heights. To maintain momentum, Gisou partnered with ILG to establish a UK-based D2C fulfilment operation. Since then, ILG has supported the brand’s rapid international growth and successful expansion into high street retail.💄🌟 Read more about our partnership with Gisou from the link in our bio.

Did you know?…
Did you know? UK shoppers abandoned £38.3bn in online purchases last year, and nearly half said delivery was the problem. From high shipping costs to lack of options, the checkout experience is costing brands more than ever. Gen Z, the most active ecommerce audience, is also the least patient with 65% walking away from purchases every month due to poor delivery. At ILG, we help brands fix that. ✔️More delivery choice ✔️Fewer abandoned baskets ✔️Smarter, scalable logistics Get in touch to see how our managed multi-carrier delivery solution can transform your checkout experience.
