Key Logistics Challenges in UK Retail Distribution (And How We Solve Them)

Retail distribution moves fast β€” and when stock doesn’t arrive on time, sales suffer. At First Freight, we support UK retailers with reliable, on-time deliveries, even during peak periods and last-minute campaigns.

πŸ›οΈ Common retail logistics challenges:

  1. Missed time slots – Causing missed shelf dates and fines

  2. Multi-drop complexity – Slowing delivery cycles

  3. Volume spikes – During holidays or promotions

  4. Reverse logistics – Managing returns effectively

  5. Communication gaps – Lack of visibility in the chain

🚚 Our solution:
We use route optimization, real-time tracking, and flexible scheduling to hit every target. Our fleet handles multi-stop and high-volume runs with ease, and our team keeps you updated every step of the way.

🧭 If your brand depends on performance at the final mile, First Freight is your retail logistics partner.
