Strategy

Stobart Group’s vision is clear: To become the UK’s leading provider of multimodal transport and logistics solutions. To achieve this vision, Stobart Group has developed an incisive three year strategic programme aimed at delivering growth for the business and value for its shareholders. Under the strategy the aim is to expand all forms of transport provided by the Group; especially with the rail, sea and air sectors; and establishing operational infrastructures in the best places to service the maximum number of customers. Stobart Group have already laid excellent foundations and is already outperforming the market.

Our strategy is underpinned by our brand, people and systems:

> Forming new partnerships with customers to further drive efficiencies.

> To seize the opportunities, operationally, as the economy comes out of recession, building on our key competitive advantages, such as load utilisation and pooling our customers.

> To market and develop our assets to our customers and then sell these assets where appropriate, at a profit to be reinvested in the business.

> To develop systems and technologies that protect the business from operational and financial risk.

> To grow organically with both existing and new customers.

> To take waste out of the system; waste adds to cost and damages the environment.

> To increase business in the United Kingdom, Ireland and mainland Europe.

> To leverage the high value in the Stobart brand.
