JJ Lawson celebrate 45 years with a special Mack

In 2020, JJ Lawson celebrate 45 years of success in the highly-competitive business of container-based freight forwarding. A key aspect of their success has been their long-term relationship with Mack Trucks, who’ve helped them grow their fleet from one truck to 26, 22 of them Mack Granites.

Jim Lawson started JJ Lawson as a customs brokerage business in 1975. He soon realised that sub-contractors weren’t up to the task, and that to maintain a good reputation he needed to transport the goods he was importing and exporting for his clients. So he bought his first truck.

His sons Greg and Martin have now taken over the business, and Greg runs a busy fleet delivering everything from scrap steel to cosmetics.
