What Kammac does

Kammac is a UK third-party logistics (3PL) provider offering warehousing, transport and haulage, ecommerce fulfilment and value-added services from a network of 12+ owned or operated sites totalling approximately 1.9 million ft² of storage — anchored by a 365,000 ft² headquarters in Skelmersdale and a 120+ vehicle, 24/7 in-house fleet (with 98% permanent drivers). Sites span North West England (Skelmersdale, Warrington, Manchester/Trafford Park, Liverpool/Wavertree, Knowsley, Widnes, Runcorn, Preston), the East Midlands (Worksop, Burton), the North East (North Shields, Newcastle) and Nottingham, the latter dedicated to health and beauty co-packing including over 9 million Easter Egg boxes processed annually. The business carries a heavy regulated-industry certification stack — BRC AA, ISO 9001/27001/13485, AEO, FHDDS, GDP, WDA(H)/WDA(V), API, TAPA, FORS, Cyber Essentials and SafeContractor — supporting bonded customs/excise warehousing, temperature-mapped storage and pharmaceutical/medical-device distribution.

The technology backbone is CloudX Systems, a web-based cloud-microservices warehouse management platform developed by sister company Bergen Logistics within the Elanders Group, providing omni-channel fulfilment, real-time inventory, batch/barcode control, FIFO/FEFO rotation, labour management, returns processing and kitting/co-packing modules, with native integrations to Shopify, Amazon Seller Central, Magento and Temu. Customer cohorts are diversified across beverage (Au Vodka, Encirc, premium spirits distillery, Kegspertise, major international brewery for 32+ years), FMCG (palm oil, confectionery), healthcare/pharma (NHS Track and Trace, DHSC Distribution Hub, Unipart–NHS Supply Chain, major medical materials manufacturer), fashion and sporting goods (Accapi/Ruffwear, global sportswear, hockey/lacrosse manufacturer, Bergen-partnered brands), automotive (Foresight, Network International Cargo) and home/cleaning (Nimble to 500+ Tesco stores, EcoSoul, TH&TH).

Revenue is generated through bespoke multi-year contracts (no public pricing) covering managed storage, per-order ecommerce fulfilment, freight forwarding, freight transport (including pallet network consolidation via United Pallet Network) and professional-services-style value-added work (kitting, co-packing, gift fulfilment, repackaging). Following Kammac's November 2023 acquisition by the Swedish-listed Elanders Group, the company has pursued an offensive growth agenda: opening Burton 101, launching BevLink (a specialist beverage fulfilment brand) and a Pop-up Fulfilment Service for ecommerce start-ups, expanding ecommerce headcount under a new Director of Ecommerce and Value-Added Services, and forming a UK partnership with Bergen Logistics anchored by a joint North Shields site.

• Yusen Logistics (UK): Global logistics provider with UK contract logistics and supply chain solutions across retail, automotive, and healthcare. Offers a broader international forwarding capability but competes for the same UK enterprise warehousing customers.

Others
