Services
We offer:
- Product - as an independent buying company we are not restricted in the range of products we can source.
- Supply - all products, with a few exceptions, will be consolidated at our UK warehouse prior to shipping
- Control - all products are checked on receipt for damage, errors, shelf life, storage temperature and hazardous properties prior to being stored under the appropriate conditions.
- Export Packing – products are packed to optimise space, reduce freight costs and protect against potential damage. Thermal packaging is used for all cold cargo. Dangerous Goods are packed to meet IATA and other regulatory requirements.

Queens Award Winners 2019
On April 23rd 2019 Carramore was awarded a Queen’s Award for Enterprise 2019 in the International Trade category. These awards are the most prestigious awards for UK business, designed to recognise and encourage outstanding achievements in four fields, and are approved by Her Majesty The Queen based on the Prime Minister's recommendation.
We were invited to a Buckingham Palace reception held on June 11th, and were awarded a Grant of Appointment (an official certificate) and a commemorative crystal trophy by the Lord Lieutenant of West Yorkshire (the Queen’s representative in our part of the UK) at our premises, on 25th October. Our reception included current staff, staff who were present during the period covered by the Award, and key people who have helped and worked with Carramore along our journey.
We are delighted to win this prestigious award which recognises the hard work undertaken to get to this point, and to also thank our staff, customers and vendors without whom this would not be possible.
