John Good Shipping has opened of a new office in Liverpool to further expand its freight forwarding and ship agency activities in the northwest of England.
The UK company said that after a number of years considering a range of different opportunities, it has opened its doors with a newly refurbished 200 sqm (2,200 sq ft) office just minutes from the Port of Liverpool. It said Peel Ports had invested £400 million over the past three years constructing Liverpool2 to create one of Europe’s most advanced container terminals, capable of accommodating the world’s largest container vessels, and this had been an important driver for John Good.
“We are convinced the opening of Liverpool2 will create significant opportunities to further expand our agency, freight forwarding, and airfreight opportunities in this key region,” commented Seamus Jennings, managing director of John Good Shipping. “The Port of Liverpool provides a fantastic gateway and a more competitive route to international markets for exporters based in the North and we want to be a part of this.”
The new office will be headed up by Barrie Taylor, “an extremely well established and respected freight expert in Liverpool and the North West”, the company added. His senior management team is made up of Keith Hughan, Steve Drury, Julie Godsall and Danielle Johnson, “all of whom have many years experience in the shipping and freight forwarding industry. In addition, the team includes a number of experienced, operational staff with well-established roots in the Liverpool area.”
