AV Dawson Limited

AV Dawsons Port of Middlesbrough is Ideally positioned on the River Tees, North East England and provides a full freight logistics service.

The essential goal of A V Dawson UK is to provide bespoke customer focussed multimodal distribution logistics...
..in doing so we strive to deliver measurable service benefits whilst reducing operating costs within our customers' supply chain. UK customers can select an individual element of our service range or opt for a complete multimodal distribution logistics package incorporating added val

ue activities. All of this from one multimodal distribution logistics supplier, one single point of contact, allowing you to concentrate on your core business. We achieve that goal by means of a diverse range of haulage, shipping, warehousing and railhead facilities, all driven by innovative management and a concern for customer service that verges on obsession. We provide world-wide multimodal distribution logistics coverage and handle every type of cargo and rail freight from consumer products to steel beams. We are the only UK company in the North of England to offer multimodal distribution logistics by road, rail or sea from its own facilities and are the largest independent dry cargo wharf operator on the River Tees. Our three neighbouring sites - the Ayrton Railhead, the North Sea Supply Base and Dawsons Wharf - operate to IS09001:2000 quality standards and provide the comprehensive resources that have helped build our international reputation.

We were delighted to host the 'Strengthening Local Supply Chain's event alongside the North East Chamber of Commerce and Family Business UK.

It was a fantastic evening, with insightful contributions from Sarah Walker and Phil Witcherley covering everything from business support and skills to inward investment and driving local growth, expertly chaired by Chris Kelsey.

We also heard from Matthew Jaffa on the vital role family businesses play in the UK economy, alongside our own Charlie Nettle, who highlighted how AV Dawson is becoming just as well known for the quality of our catering as we are for our port and logistics operations.

Thanks to everyone who attended.

We need your help!

This October, AV Dawson’s Chairman, Dawson, and Deputy Chairman, John Young, are taking on an incredible fundraising challenge. Joining business leaders from across the Tees Valley, they’ll be walking an impressive 50km along the Great Wall of China in support of Chain.

Daisy Chain is a fantastic charity delivering vital support to autistic and neurodivergent individuals and their families – and this challenge will help make a real difference.

The duo need to raise £10,000, and we’d love your support to help them get there. Every donation, no matter the size, will go towards supporting the amazing work Daisy Chain does in our community.

AV Dawson Golf Day 2026!

On Friday, we were delighted to bring together colleagues, customers and suppliers once again for our annual golf day, a brilliant opportunity for some friendly competition and catching up on and off the course.

Well done to Scott Bros, who claimed the top spot this year!

Thank you to Teesside Golf Club for hosting us at such a fantastic venue and to everyone who took part in making the day a success. We can’t wait to do it all again next year!

They’ve done it! 🎉

Gary and Freddie Dawson have officially hit their fundraising target ahead of their upcoming Teesside Hospice’s 'Rallye du Soleil' to Lake Como later this month.

Taking on this incredible challenge in support of Teesside Hospice, Gary and Freddie have been overwhelmed by the generosity and support from colleagues, partners and the wider community.

Every pound raised will help Teesside Hospice continue providing essential care and support to people and families across our region, which we are proud to be Corporate Partners of.

A huge thank you to Insignia Signs & Graphics for supplying and installing the fantastic vinyls!
