West Yorkshire-based logistics limited company Joda Freight, specialists in abnormal load transportation, haulage and warehousing services, has announced the expansion of its vehicle fleet and warehousing capabilities, following the company’s growth in 2024.
Joda Freight are a leading logistics and warehousing solutions company, with their revenue growing 10% in 2024 from 2023 figures. A continued positive trajectory in 2025 is facilitated by its continued investment in the capabilities and workforce, including the expansion of their vehicle fleet to include six new Volvo FH500 tractor units in 2025 alongside two Hiab vehicles previously purchased during 2024.
These new vehicles will join the Joda fleet in phases from March, with all six new vehicles operational by April. Each of the vehicles will be equipped with driver comforts including fridges and microwaves, and additional driver aids in the form of Volvo’s new moving off information system (MOIS).
Joda have also acquired an additional 62,000 sq. ft. warehousing unit, increasing their total warehousing capacity to 200,000 sq. ft., to further reinforce the forecasted positive trajectory in 2025. This new warehouse on the edge of Keighley, close to the Joda headquarters, has been operational since February 1st.
From this warehousing facility, Joda’s contract logistics, long and short-term storage and pick and pack services will see additional floor storage and racking capabilities to meet customer requirements. Previously acquired warehouse space in Bradford, in the first quarter of 2024, saw the space reach capacity within two months of becoming operational.
These expansions contribute positively towards Joda’s aims for 2025 to continue to grow its nationwide client roster. In particular, the logistics provider aims to grow its market share in the engineering sector.
Neil Tullett, co-owner of Joda Freight, says: “To follow the strong year in 2024, and with our increased focus on expanding our haulage and warehouse capabilities, I’m pleased to report our continued growth. Since taking over the business in 2023, Joda’s continued focus on expanding its fleet and operational capabilities to expand our client roster, sees us going from strength-strength.”
