Moran Logistics is celebrating its 20th anniversary, marking two decades since founder Harry Moran began the business with just a van and a vision.

After leaving the army’s Royal Engineers and spending 15 years in retail, Moran set out to create a logistics company built around exceptional customer service. That founding principle still underpins the business today.

Two decades later, the company has achieved turnover exceeding £100m and operates a fleet of more than 400 lorries and 550 trailers from 19 sites nationwide. Its four warehouses now offer over 500,000sq ft of chilled and ambient capacity, supporting major food manufacturers and retailers.

Moran’s first customer, Arla Foods, has renewed its contract again this year - a testament to the firm’s long-term partnerships and reliability.

With more than 1,000 employees, the business continues to invest in advanced systems and technology to enhance efficiency and visibility across the supply chain. Under CEO Mark Burrell and his leadership team, Moran Logistics remains committed to growth, innovation and keeping customers at the heart of everything it does.
