Meet the Team at International Freight Solutions (IFS)
Owner and Managing Director, Paul Johnson
“Paul has been involved with Logistics and International Freight Forwarding for over twenty years. He helped establish Courier Logistics to become one of the largest courier companies in the region before forming International Freight Solutions in 2016.
Paul says “whilst nothing is ever guaranteed in transport, the biggest buzz I get is arranging a shipment from start to finish, fulfilling the client’s requirements and dropping them a line to confirm the delivery is complete. It doesn’t always go to plan of course but that is where we use our knowledge and experience to help resolve any issues quickly. IFS are here to take that headache away from you!” Find out more >
