About this company

L V Shipping Limited is a Felixstowe-registered company forming part of Royal Dutch LV Logistics, an international logistics group originally founded in the Netherlands. The wider group provides full-service logistics, including freight handling and supply chain support, across more than 35 offices worldwide, with a UK office network including Felixstowe, Aberdeen, Southampton, Tilbury and others. Companies House classifies the entity's activity as other transportation support services, consistent with freight and haulage-related operations. As the Felixstowe base of the group, the company operates within LV Logistics' UK presence, serving industries such as maritime, energy, construction and manufacturing through the group's broader logistics services rather than as an independent standalone operator.
