About us
JPGL is the trusted name in import, export and cross-border logistics. From international freight to customs clearance, have it all or pick the parts you need.
Our story
JPGL is an evolution of the government-backed Jersey Post: a business that had over 50 years’ postal, logistics and ecommerce experience – on the Channel Islands and beyond.
We acquired a number of businesses with vast logistics experience to provide new services for our clients. Jersey Post Global Logistics was joined by HICs’ 100 years of customs expertise, and global logistics provider Fraser Freight’s forwarding.
Fast forward and JPGL has trading locations on every continent (though we haven’t forgotten our roots, and are still UK, Channel Island and European specialists), a network of worldwide distribution routes, and an extensive portfolio of delivery services. All accessible through a single point of contact to help you capitalise on cross-border ecommerce opportunities.
Our people
The Jersey Post Group is made up of over 500 trusted employees based in Jersey, the UK, Europe and internationally.
Our employees come from a wide variety of backgrounds and work in a range of business areas including postal operations and support services, as well as in our freight, customs and logistics businesses which are based off-island.
