London Heathrow - Velta International Ltd (London Heathrow, Head Office)
Velta International Ltd. was formed in 1999 and has established a long-standing presence in the NVOCC market, focusing on cargo consolidation from Asia to the UK. The company services end users as well as other freight forwarders and logistics providers, maintaining a neutral and trustworthy posture across its operations. Consolidation remains a core service, supported by partnerships with premier ocean carriers to ensure favorable port-to-port transit times.
Clients can track all cargo movements through Velta’s operational system, which provides real-time visibility via an access code and internet access. The system highlights key milestones such as ETD, vessel, ETA, and delivery details, and offers online access to shipping documents and customs declarations.
In December 2013, Velta opened a dedicated air freight office at London Heathrow, expanding its air freight capabilities with a team of professionals. The air import department is equipped to handle UK customs clearances in-house, with direct computer links to customs at Heathrow, Manchester, and London Gatwick. The company is experienced in all aspects of customs procedures.
Exports operations include handling of dangerous goods under IATA regulations, with expertise in both direct MAWB shipments and consolidations to optimize costs. In addition to general cargo and DG shipments, Velta can manage perishable, valuable, and time-sensitive consignments.
Velta also operates an in-house courier division that manages urgent dispatch of small documents or parcels on a same-day or overnight basis, domestically or internationally. The company is an IATA member agent and holds BIFA and FIATA affiliations, and operates as a CFSP authorised agent with AEO status.
Headquartered in the UK with additional facilities, Velta is positioned to deliver international freight solutions through a combination of air, sea, and road services, supported by a bonded warehouse and regulatory compliance capabilities.
