Glyn Mummery and Julie Humphrey of FRP Advisory took charge as joint administrators on 6 May 2026, according to a London Gazette notice. The collapse follows a notice of intention to appoint administrators filed in April, after funding provider WeDo Invoice Finance moved against the business, TheBusinessDesk reported.
The operator, registered as Instant Despatch Services Limited, ran general haulage, palletised distribution, warehousing and contract logistics from Unit 8, Mansard Close, on the Westgate Industrial Estate. Its trucks moved freight across the UK and into Europe through the Pall-Ex pallet network.
Incorporated in July 2002, the company had filed accounts up to 31 August 2024, with the next set due at the end of this month. Whether they will now be filed is unclear.
Loop joins a steady run of mid-sized UK hauliers tipped over in the past year by thin margins, soft demand and tighter credit, with invoice finance disputes increasingly the trigger that pushes operators from squeezed to stopped.
