Spain-Origin Export Logistics · Fashion & Apparel
Fashion & apparel logistics from Spain
Spain is the home of Inditex, Mango, and Desigual — fashion is a time-critical business, and the freight has to match. We run urgent LTL and priority FTL out of Spain on the fastest corridors so seasonal drops and replenishment loads land on time.
Why this sector ships with us
Fashion freight lives and dies by lead time. A delayed container changes little; a delayed truck to a Milan or Paris DC changes weekend sell-through. Our fashion lanes are the fast-response side of our network: Spain→France FTL 1–2 days, Spain→Italy FTL 2–3 days, Spain→Germany FTL 2–3 days, Spain→UK 3–4 days customs-managed.
We consolidate palletized apparel on scheduled LTL groupage so smaller brands pay for the meters they use, not a full trailer. Hanging-garment freight on garments-on-hangers (GOH) trailers is available on request for the Spain→Italy and Spain→France corridors.
The UK corridor post-Brexit is where most fashion logistics pain lives. We pre-lodge UK import paperwork through our licensed UK broker partners so cleared loads reach London, Birmingham, and Manchester DCs without waiting at Dover.

Frequently asked
