LTS Global Solutions getting on with job as it forecasts strong growth for 2025

Coleshill based LTS Global Solutions has kicked off 2025 on a high note, embracing a new ethos of simply getting on with the job.

It is an approach which has paid off leading to a flurry of new business wins, with further tenders in the pipeline, laying strong foundations for another successful year.

The company, which last year celebrated its 25th anniversary, is driven by partnership trust and passion – an ethos which is reflected in the company’s day to day operation.

Enjoying year on year growth against a backdrop of continuous investment, LTS Global Solutions is on course to end its current financial year (end March) on a £12 million turnover – representing a 14% growth,

Looking ahead ambitious plans for growth are already in place with the company setting its sights on achieving £15m in 2026 and setting a target of £20 million within the next three years.

To help drive this growth, the forwardthinking company has appointed a new sales director and senior business development manager set to play a pivotal role in helping the company to achieve its goals.

The past 12 months have been something of a whirlwind for LTS with investments exceeding £2.2 million.

New for 2024 included a state-of-theart compliance and fleet management system from Aquarius, the company’s first Volvo FM 4 x 2 electric vehicle, a new Volvo Aero, a fleet of new DAF trucks plus two new global offices in Hong Kong and Delhi. A further milestone was also achieving its first BRCGS AA accreditation opening up new market opportunities for LTS.

It has however not been without its challenges as Managing Director Dave Hands explains: “We have had an exciting year and whilst our transport and shipping pillars have performed extremely well warehousing has been more challenging.

“However, having now gained our BRCGS AA accreditation and also with our new sales team in place we are forecasting a 40% growth in our warehousing business this year.

“We have laid strong foundations over the past 12 months which we are confident will stand us in good stead helping us drive continued growth.”

A business driven by partnership success and passion the company strives to achieve excellence across the business ensuring it provides an optimum level of service to its customers.

Committed to a programme of continuous improvement, Managing Director Dave Hands is eager to see his senior management team grow, develop, and be mentored. To support this, the company has introduced a management development tool, Strategy 135, designed to measure performance and drive leadership growth.

Sustainability too remains a top priority for the company, aligning with its broader commitment to responsible business practices and long-term success.

A long-time leader in delivering logistics and supply chain management services, LTS Global Solutions operates from its state-. of-the-art, 133,000 sq. ft Logistics Centre of Excellence facility at Prologis Park, based at Hams Hall in Coleshill.

Established in 1999 and undergoing a successful management buyout in 2020 the company has an impressive pedigree, priding itself on delivering end-to-end transport, logistics and supply chain solutions.

In addition to its new electric truck, LTS Global Solutions today also operates a modern, 60-strong fleet of up to 44 tonnes, all of which are Euro 6 compliant.

Its efforts to reduce its carbon footprint saw LTS Global Solutions form a new partnership with internationally recognised and net zero specialists Planet Mark. The partnership has led to LTS Global Solutions gaining Planet Mark Business Certification, which certifies and recognises progress in reducing emissions across Scopes 1 and 2 and core elements of Scope 3.
