Importing from Slovenia to the UK
Slovenia is a beautiful but small alpine nation with an amazing history and culture, breathtaking countryside full of verdant green landscapes, cave systems for the adventurous, and also a bustling economy that thrives on trade. It is one of nine rising economies of Europe. As a result, it is a market with import and trade possibilities for UK companies. What’s more, Slovenia is also considered a gateway country to the southeastern EU supplier markets with strong trade and economic links with neighbouring Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, which has ensured well-connected infrastructure.
In addition, the great roads and connections are perfect for road freight transfers, an area we specialise in. Plus, it’s an easy country for UK businesses as English is spoken widely as a language of commerce, so quality goods can quickly be shipped to the UK making importing from Slovenia a viable option. Even better, it has comparable company, legal and technical regulations to the UK.

The quote was quick and easy, booking was straightforward and everything was handled smoothly from start to finish. As this was our first import we needed a bit of guidance along the way but Simon was brilliant. He took care of everything, kept us updated throughout and was always on hand to answer our questions. What seemed like a complicated process was made incredibly simple and stress free. The customer service was excellent, communication was spot on and our shipment arrived without any issues. We wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable freight forwarder. Thanks again for making our first import such a positive experience!

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a time-critical air freight shipment coming in from China to the UK and Simon was a huge help in getting it over the line. Right before arrival, an issue came up due to a mistake from the airline, which could have turned into a real headache. Simon picked it up straight away, dealt with it quickly and managed to sort everything without any extra costs on our side. Really solid support throughout and easy to deal with, especially given the urgency. Another great job by Barrington Freight - we’ll definitely be using them again!

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Good service during a turbulent global shipping period. Special thanks goes to Lee for his efficiency and proactive updates and for rescheduling a delivery in less than 24hrs when the haulage company didn’t read their own paperwork and sent a lorry without the requested tail lift. Highly recommended.
