Get to know Hyland Shipping

Who Are We

Hyland Shipping was found in 1983 by Jim Hyland and with this we are happy to say that we celebrated our 40 years in business in 2023. The company initially specialised in the transportation of full loads and groupage of dry and refrigerated products between Spain, Portugal and Ireland. From our initial expertise in the wine industry, Hyland Shipping was a market leader in the transportation of wine into Ireland from around the world early on in our journey. This allowed for growth into a leading freight forwarding business and the expansion of services to and from the EU. Some of our most recent expansions include new services in Baltic and Scandinavian regions.
