Coventry is prime warehouse country. Nestled between the M6, M1, M40, M42 and M45 the transport links to the entire country couldn't be better.

No surprise then this is warehouse country. Everything you want is available here: frozen, chilled, secure, pallet, MHRA, BRC - you name it. Anyone who's anyone has a site around here.

The airport lies 3.5 miles southeast of Coventry city centre, in the village of Baginton. A little pointless fact for you: in 1994, it became a focus for animal rights campaigners who protested at the export of live animals from the airport as freight.
