European News:

Administrator appointed to Navistar Global Logistics
August 31, 2012
SFP, the nationwide insolvency practitioners, has been appointed Administrator of Navistar Global Logistics Limited after the firm encountered financial difficulties, leading to debts of almost £400,000.

Navistar Global Logistics Limited was an international logistics freight forwarding company that specialised in air and sea freight, road haulage, transfer customs clearance, storage and fulfillment. With its headquarters in Feltham, Middlesex, the firm also had warehousing in London, West Bromwich, Manchester and Newcastle.

Despite having a major contract with Palletforce plc, employing 23 people and having an annual turnover of £2 million, Navistar was not able to avoid going into administration and thus SFP¹s Daniel and Simon Plant both licensed members of the Insolvency Practitioners¹ Association were appointed Joint Administrators on 14th August 2012.

Partner at SFP Daniel Plant says this is the third such case of a haulage firm going under that he has seen in the last six months: “The haulage sector is extremely competitive in the current economic climate with petrol costs putting a squeeze on suppliers and margins.”

“Navistar Global Logistics Limited has run into cashflow difficulties and despite discussions with a number of interested parties, it has ceased trading.”
