LF&E are considered to be one of the UK’s leading refrigerated transport companies. We provide a specialist temperature controlled courier service to the pharma and food industries and deliver across the UK. In what is a time critical and temperature sensitive sector, we consistently deliver an exceptional service by increasing our clients ‘on time’ successful deliveries, representing their company to the best standards and reducing their cost per delivery. Whether you are transporting pharmaceuticals or food you can trust that LF&E will get your delivery to its destination promptly and safely. We comply with the MHRA rules, Good Distribution Practice and all our drivers conform with Standard Operating Procedures. Our happy customers even include some of the top names in the healthcare industry such as the NHS, Bupa and Siemens. Unlike many other chilled couriers, we provide a truly bespoke service to our clients. We employ all of our own drivers and use all our own vehicles to ensure we maintain the integrity of our customer’s supply chain. Our dual temperate refrigerated vans are the best in the business and allow customers to remotely track the location and the temperature of the vehicles throughout their journey. “In May 2015 a leading provider of at home health care appointed LF&E Refrigerated Transport as 1 of only 3 logistic partners to facilitate their nationwide deliveries. LF&E were entrusted with 6 locations throughout Northern England, Scotland and Northern Ireland providing circa 46 routes per day and 2 night trucking routes to Northern Ireland and the Scottish Highlands.
