About Manfreight
Manfreight provides international road transport, logistics and warehousing across the UK, Ireland and Europe. Services include Irish, UK and European transport, food-grade logistics, and dedicated or shared warehousing, including a multi-temperature food storage facility in Spalding.
Its customers are food and beverage businesses, including retail distribution centres, that need ambient, chilled or frozen handling. The company operates a fleet of state-of-the-art vehicles and sells transport, logistics and storage services to its clients.
The business was established in 1973 by Chris Slowey, initially hauling fertilizer and fuel for the agricultural sector. The current legal entity, Manfreight Limited, dates from 2005. Headquarters are in Craigavon, with sites in Ireland and the UK; the company has invested close to £1m in its County Armagh hub and is opening a new depot in Lancashire. It is privately owned and managed by Chris Slowey, the founder's son, since 2010. It is recruiting skilled drivers, and in 2025 it received two Irish Transport & Logistics Awards and a £100,000 grant for 5G and digital technology.
Product: International road transport, food-grade and temperature-controlled logistics, and dedicated or shared warehousing.
