Our Global Business

Reach international markets with MHI’s award-winning combination of carrier relationships, in-house technology and expert knowledge

Who we are

Headquartered in the heart of Bristol, with a presence all over the world, we are experts in all things mail and international delivery.

With technology, sustainability, and supply chain agility at our core, we've grown from a mailing house with a single processing line, to a global delivery specialist with five distinct brands, award-winning recognition, and a global client base.

What we do

We've spent three decades building our service portfolio in lettershop and international delivery. Our multi-carrier technology optimises 112 global carrier contracts to provide our clients with the perfect balance of cost and performance.

And with an in-house print and mail facility, we can provide our clients with a one-stop-shop for all things print, mail, and delivery.

Who we do it for

Retailers operating on a global scale, marketing agencies, government organisations, publishing houses, printers and many other leading brands.

We build long-term, trusted relationships with our clients, offering proactive solutions to help them reach their own customers with ease. We will aid your operation through delivery and fulfilment, or your marketing and operations through our mailing services.

Accolades

Our Sustainable Commitment

Proud holders of a Green Business of the Year Award, we put the Triple Bottom Line at the forefront of everything we do

Fantastic People

Whether they're processing your items in the warehouse, co-ordinating activity in the office or furthering our presence in the field, our people mean everything to us.

With 95% of our operational staff living within a two-mile radius of our Bristol HQ, most of them making use of the company's cycle-to-work scheme, we are proud to offer stable employment to the local community.

Shared Planet

In an industry awash with environmental concerns, we do everything we can to off-set our carbon footprint. With over 170 solar panels powering our warehouse operation, we have saved 40,000 kg of CO2 emissions since 2015, the equivalent of planting 1,800 trees.

In 2019, we were recognised as the "Green Business of the Year" at the Business Leader Awards for our dedication to fulfilling the Triple Bottom Line.

Sustainable Profit

Sustainability is often viewed as a choice on cost; it doesn't need to be. Through MHI's route optimising technology, we help clients save money whilst operating more sustainably.

Our routing technology ensures fewer half-empty pallets, leading to fewer trucks on the road, leading to fewer emissions poured into the environment. At MHI, people, profit and planet are symbiotic to success.
