BBA Shipping and Transport

BBA Shipping & Transport Ltd specialise in the worldwide movement of horses by air, road and sea. BBA Shipping and Transport grew out of the shipping department of the British Bloodstock Agency. The BBA has been at the forefront of developments in international trade in horses since the formation of the company in 1911. BBA Shipping and Transport specialises in the permanent and temporary export of horses all over the world, as well as the transportation of European runners to the largest International Races. In the recent past, relationships with organisations such as the Hong Kong Jockey Club (HKJC) and the Japan Racing Association (JRA) have enabled us to make International racing possible. About BBA Shipping While the integration of various modes of transport is one of the keys to the success of the BBA Shipping operation, air freight is still the core business, and year on year there has been a rise in both the numbers of horses shipped and the diversity of destinations to which they travel. BBA Shipping deals directly with all the major airlines involved in horse transport and provides innovative and cost-effective solutions to all its clients’ transport requirements, whilst always prioritising the safety and comfort of the horse. The commitment and professionalism of horse box drivers, grooms and office staff is second to none and we always have dedicated members of our team present at all major UK and Irish sales. BBA Shipping and Transport now boasts a total of four state-of-the-art horse boxes in order to meet the steady increase in business — two 9 boxes (CA11 BBA & V9 BBA), one 4 box (R4 BBA) and one 2 box (H055 BBA).
