About Pro Carrier:

Established in 2019, Pro Carrier is the exciting new cross border ecommerce delivery arm of DG International.

The guiding principle of Pro Carrier is to allow our customers to find sending parcels cross border as simple as sending parcels within the UK.

In offering a range of global delivery options, supported by a choice of final mile delivery partners, and backed up by smart and intuitive IT solutions, Pro Carrier has taken a fresh look at how we can support our customers to achieve cross border growth simply and effectively.

DG International was established in 2009 to provide high levels of customer service to a range of clients importing into the UK from Asia via sea and air.

The company has grown rapidly since then and now offers a range of logistics services across diverse industry sectors.

DG's growth has been underpinned by a commitment to a set of shared values that creates a high-performance culture. We have employed self-motivated people who are empowered to make decisions to accelerate our growth.

DG is poised for significant growth, with a strategy to grow to double in size over next three years, with Pro Carrier being at the forefront of that plan.

The leadership team is experienced, dynamic and client-centric, and the focus for growth is around new technology offerings that compliment current services and additional market share from emerging markets.
