About us
A shipping partner that puts the right route first.
Seaway Logistics is an independent shipping and freight forwarding business based in Hull. Being independent means we’re not tied to a single carrier—so we can focus on what matters: the best operational solution for your cargo, schedule and budget.
Hull-based. Heritage-backed.
A effective shipping partner for complex movements
Incorporated in 2010, Seaway Logistics was established to provide practical, reliable shipping support from the Humber, backed by hands-on experience in port operations, documentation and cargo coordination.
In 2016, Seaway Logistics became part of J. R. Rix & Sons, a family-owned shipping group with heritage dating back to 1873. Today, we combine that heritage with an agile, service-led approach—supporting customers with freight forwarding, shipping agency services and end-to-end shipment management.
