Anglo European Transport Services Ltd would go on to establish another company named British European Transport Ltd, and as the saying goes: from humble beginnings come great things, as this was the precursor to our Suttons International division.
In 1965 an office was established in Bethnal Green, London to manage the burgeoning international business, which utilised the recently invented intermodal tank container to move products internationally. Some of our earliest international contracts were moving latex to Ireland and the very hazardous Toluene Di-iscocyanate (TDI) to Poland, before the business expanded further into Europe, and later Asia and the US.

Suttons have always been on the cutting edge of industry technology, as seen from our adoption of the tank container as it was developed in the mid 60’s, to recent innovations such as heated and cooled tanks, and tracking systems that keep our customers up to date with the location of their product at all times.
