Leicester — why is it a UK logistics hub?

Leicester, situated in central England, has undeniable advantages for trading business. The city has direct access to two major motorways:

• M1 Motorway — connects London, Birmingham and the North, enabling rapid transport to ports (Southampton, Felixstowe ~150 km).
• M6 Motorway — access to Liverpool and north-west England and Ireland (via Holyhead).
• East Midlands Airport — cargo terminal for air freight (especially pharmaceuticals and e-commerce).
• Rail network — connections to London, Birmingham and Southampton port.

These infrastructure connections make Leicester an ideal base for Polish importers and exporters working with partners across Europe.
