We pride ourselves on being one of the top UK and European logistics specialists with location hubs in the Midlands, Heathrow, Paris and Ireland. In the beginning The story began with humble roots of JJX Small Haul back in 1997. John Joseph Donovan, the founder, was a man with a van and a plan. To deliver upon any of his promises and the attention to customer service was key. Building a reputation for service, honesty and loyalty. From day one in September of 1997, John went to the bank to talk about the business plan. Excitedly returning to the bank, John handed it over. They laughed John out of the bank. Calling his Business plan pathetic. For the next 10 years, John went about the UK and Europe personally growing his logistics business and delivering on the promise that the customer was king. Focusing on express and urgent deliveries. Growth Then came the acquisition of Express Light Haulage in 2007 from his brother Michael who, due to ill health, passed on the baton. John then began this chapter of the story with the mission of providing same-day time-critical shipping solutions throughout the UK and Europe. Two years later in 2009, the company changed its trading name to JJX Logistics. Family More about us, and the family here at JJX. Family has been an important part of the growth for John and JJX. With the first real base being set up in the garage of the family home. His wife Denise and his daughters all playing major roles in the development of the business. Thanks to the effort and time put in by the family and employees, JJX now operates from a large main hub in the Midlands, with satellite depots in Heathrow, Paris and Ireland.

(Above) John and his ever reliable truck on a brisk morning of October 2007. This vehicle was similar to what John spent his first 10 years in the company with. A sleeper that accommodated him, whilst travelling around the UK and Europe. Having a reliable van was of utmost importance due to the distance that was travelled. Having a headache for having a breakdown meant loss in profit, loss in company earnings and as the old saying goes ”time is money” but as John says ”Customer is King” and having breakdowns will mean the king will not be happy and will take business elsewhere. Having spent 10 years on the road with very little time for hiself, John certainly was committed to the company. Looking ahead many years later, and we can see that customer is still king. As one of the top UK and European haulage specialists JJX Logistics have come a long way, from it’s humble beginnings.
