James and James Fulfillment – which stores, packs and ships products on behalf of nearly 400 online stores – has ranked #91 on the Sunday Times Virgin Atlantic Fast Track 100.  It is the second time the firm has featured on the list of Britain’s private companies with the fastest-growing sales.

The company – which secured an £11 million investment in March, leased a brand new building in May and recruited 200+ people in the run up to Christmas – has seen its growth accelerate this year, as more consumers turned to eCommerce throughout lockdowns.

It is fitting, therefore, that James and James is one of the many eCommerce and logistics firms to be ranked on the Fast Track 100 in a year that highlights the important contribution that private companies have made to the UK during the pandemic.

James Hyde, CEO and Co-founder, explains: “We’ve seen many more people shopping online this year and we’re proud to have operated throughout, to get both necessities and creature comforts to those that need them. This has accelerated the already-rapid growth trajectory we were on. Securing our second Fast Track 100 ranking is a testament to that.”
