Thank You & Happy New Year!

With 2025 drawing to a close, we want to take the opportunity to thank all our customers for the support shown throughout the year. It has been an interesting year to say the least and has definitely flown by! Whether you're a new customer who has only just joined us, or one that has been with us for 40+ years, the support we receive from you ensures we can focus on bringing solutions to you and your freight.

2025 has had its ups and downs; as the US played with Tariffs, the rest of the world has had to find balance in an ever-changing supply chain, shipping lines have had to adjust routing, and importers/exporters find alternative solutions to an unsettled landscape. In amongst the uncertainty, customers have had to find new opportunities and avenues of business.

For Hobbs Global, 2025 saw our team expand with the introduction of several new staff members both in our Albany Office and Airport Warehouses, and new business filling our second warehouse facility at 29 Verissimo Drive. Our team are thriving and looking forward to the opportunities that 2026 will bring.

The prospect of 2026 is a positive one as business looks to build from a cautious 2025 to an optimistic year ahead.

From Hobbs Global, wishing a very Happy New Year to you, your team and your families. Safe travels, enjoy the break and we look forward to continuing our journey together in the year ahead. Thanks again!
