| STRATEGIC REPORT |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 |
| The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 December 2022. |
| REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
| RESULTS |
| The results for the year are set out on page 11. |
| The principal activity of the company in the year under review is Freight transport and other transportation support services. |
| International Cargo Logistics UK Limited ended the financial year with a profit before tax of £834,456, an increase from the previous year's profit before tax of £412,236. Growth in 2022 predominately came from our new vertical due to Brexit opportunities in customs (flowers) coupled with, additional growth from our inche products, perishables, retail and ecommerce fulfilment opportunities, together with strong sea freight rates in the current economic market. International Cargo Logistics Limited continue to deliver goods through multi-modal transportation (sea, air and road), value-added services and effective customs brokerage services to ensure the fastest delivery at destination. Turnover increased from £46,799,102 to £50,285,515 and the gross profit increased from £7,708,978 to £7,988,382. |
| International Cargo Logistics Limited continues to focus on general freight forwarding services in addition to e-commerce and fulfilment, servicing the retail and wellbeing sector customers. The company relocated during 2022 splitting our sites to, two locations, one for airfreight and warehousing, with a view to be recognised as a regulated agent during 2023 and our head office in London Heathrow. |
| Opening a satellite office in Scotland has been a strategic move, as during the pandemic we employed staff to work remotely taking advantage of the Scottish market and the opportunities it brings has allowed International Cargo logistics to expand its presence in several geographical regions in the UK. The company recognises that it needs to diversify in order to be competitive in the foreseeable future. |
| Adequate finance has been obtained to take advantage of business opportunities, and the directors consider the state of affairs to be satisfactory. |
| The company has continued to maintain strong control over cost and working capital. The company has continue to be active in the management of its overheads.The directors are pleased with the performance of the company under the current economic conditions. |
| The Board believe the continued focus on maintaining strong relationships with customers and suppliers will allow the company to take advantage of future opportunities as they arise whilst at the same time maintaining tight control over costs with the continuing economic uncertainty. |
| The directors are optimistic about 2023, however the business remains mindful and cautious about the UK economy and beyond given the current inflationary pressures. |
| PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
| The company faces a number of business risks and uncertainties due to current trading conditions, with continued pricing pressure from customers and suppliers alike. In view of this the directors are looking carefully at both existing and potential new markets, looking at the political and economic factors effecting business today. |

| STRATEGIC REPORT |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 |
| FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT |
| Credit risk |
| Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The company is mainly exposed to credit risk from credit sales and as a result the company has taken out credit risk insurance. It is company policy, implemented locally, to assess the credit risk of new customers before entering into contracts. Credit limits are established for each customer, which represents the maximum open amount without requiring approval. |
| At a local level, a monthly review of the trade receivables' ageing analysis is undertaken and customers' credit is reassessed periodically. Existing customers that become "high risk" as a result of the periodic reassessment are placed on a restricted customer list and future credit sales are made only with approval of the local management, otherwise payment in advance is required. As is increasingly common in the industry, in recent times it's becoming increasingly difficult to find insurance in the sector, at similar levels to prior years. |
| Liquidity risk |
| Liquidity risk arises from the company management of working capital. It is the risk that the company will encounter difficulty in meeting its financial obligations as they fall due. |
| The Board receives rolling forward projections on a monthly basis as well as information regarding cash balances. At the end of the financial year, these projections indicated that the company expected to have sufficient liquid resources to meet its obligations under all reasonably expected circumstances. |
| Foreign exchange risk |
| Foreign exchange risk arises when the company enters into transactions denominated in a currency other than their functional currency. |
| The Board reviews the exposure of the company to exchange rate risk frequently, significant changes in the exchange rate, particularly the US Dollar, impact the margin of the business. |
| The company seeks to operate within its agreed overdraft facility with the bank. The company has not entered into any hedging arrangements in respect of risks relating to trade debtors or trade creditors. |
| Interest rate risk |
| The company is exposed to interest rate risk on its borrowings with the bank. The company is currently reliant on trade debtor factoring and overdraft facilities from the bank and therefore has a cash flow and liquidity risk. The bank is currently satisfied with the company's financial performance and the directors do not think that there is any risk of the facilities being withdrawn. |

| REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 |
| AUDITORS |
| The auditors, Melinek Fine LLP, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting. |
| ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
| REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
| INTERNATIONAL CARGO LOGISTICS LIMITED |
| PREVIOUSLY KNOWN AS MENTFIELD UK LIMITED |
| Opinion |
| We have audited the financial statements of International Cargo Logistics Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 December 2022 which comprise the Income Statement, Other Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, Statement of Changes in Equity, Cash Flow Statement and Notes to the Cash Flow Statement, Notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). |
| In our opinion the financial statements: |
| - | give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31 December 2022 and of its profit for the year then ended; |
| - | have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and |
| - | have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. |
| Basis for opinion |
| We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. |
| Conclusions relating to going concern |
| In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. |
| Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. |
| Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. |
| Other information |
| The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors thereon. |
| Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. |
| In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. |
| Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 |
| In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: |
| - | the information given in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and |
| - | the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. |
| REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
| INTERNATIONAL CARGO LOGISTICS LIMITED |
| PREVIOUSLY KNOWN AS MENTFIELD UK LIMITED |
| Matters on which we are required to report by exception |
| In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Report of the Directors. |
| We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: |
| - | adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or |
| - | the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or |
| - | certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or |
| - | we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. |
| Responsibilities of directors |
| As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page five, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. |
| In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. |
| REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
| INTERNATIONAL CARGO LOGISTICS LIMITED |
| PREVIOUSLY KNOWN AS MENTFIELD UK LIMITED |
| Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements |
| Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. |
| The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: |
| We identified areas of laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the financial statements from our: general commercial and sector experience; through verbal and written communications with those charged with governance and other management; and via inspection of the company's regulatory and legal correspondence. |
| We discussed with those charged with governance and other management the policies and procedures regarding compliance with laws and regulations. |
| We communicated identified laws and regulations to our team and remained alert to any indicators of non-compliance throughout the audit, we also specifically considered where and how fraud may occur within the company. |
| The potential effect of these laws and regulations on the financial statements varies considerably. |
| Firstly, the company is subject to laws and regulations that directly affect the financial statements, including: the company's constitution, relevant financial reporting standards; company law; tax legislation and distributable profits legislation and we assessed the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our procedures on the related financial statement items. |
| Secondly the company is subject to many other laws and regulations where the consequences of non-compliance could have a material effect on the amounts or disclosures in the financial statements, for instance through the imposition of fines and penalties, or through losses arising from litigation. We identified the following areas as those most likely to have such an affect: employment legislation; health and safety legislation; trade legislation; data protection legislation; anti-bribery and corruption legislation. |
| International Standards on Auditing (UK) limit the required procedures to identify non-compliance with these laws and regulations to the procedures, and no procedures over and above those already noted are required. These limited procedures did not identify any actual or suspected non-compliance with laws and regulations that could have a material impact on the financial statements. |
| In relation to fraud, we performed the following specific procedures in addition to those already noted: |
| -Challenging assumptions made by management in its significant accounting estimates. |
| -Identifying and testing journal entries, in particular any entries posted with unusual nominal ledger account combinations, journal entries crediting cash or any revenue account, journal entries posted by senior management. |
| -Performing analytical procedures to identify unexpected movements in account balances which may be indicative of fraud; |
| -Ensuring that testing undertaken on both the performance statements and the Balance Sheet includes a number of items selected on a random basis. |
| These procedures did not identify any actual or suspected fraudulent irregularity that could have a material impact on the financial statements. |
| REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF |
| INTERNATIONAL CARGO LOGISTICS LIMITED |
| PREVIOUSLY KNOWN AS MENTFIELD UK LIMITED |
| Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with International Auditing Standards (UK). For example, the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the procedures that we are required to undertake would identify it. In addition, as with any audit, there remains a high risk of non-detection of irregularities, as these might involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentation, or the override of internal controls. We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance with laws and regulations or fraud, and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and regulations or every incidence of fraud. |
| A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Auditors. |
| Use of our report |
| This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those matters we are required to state to them in a Report of the Auditors and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed. |

| The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.The company continues to maintain positive cash reserves subsequent to the year end and with the availability of the trade debtors factoring facilities, the Directors are satisfied that it will continue to operate as a going concern in the foreseeable future. Therefore it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. |
| Turnover |
| Turnover is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for services provided in the normal course of business, and is shown net of VAT and other sales related taxes. |
| The fair value of consideration takes into account trade discounts, settlement discounts and volume rebates. |
| The Company recognises revenue when: |
| The amount of revenue can be reliably measured; it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity; and specific criteria have been met for each of the Company's activities. The revenue recognition point is normally at the expected time of arrival of imports and the expected time of departure of exports. |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Improvements to property | - |
| Plant and machinery | - |
| Fixtures and fittings | - |
| Tangible fixed assets are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. |
| Government grants |
| Grants are accounted under the accruals model as permitted by FRS 102. Grants of a revenue nature are recognised in the Income Statement in the same period as the related expenditure. |
| Stocks |
| Work in progress is stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. |
| Cost is determined as incurred for the completion of relevant sale. |
| The cost of work in progress comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. At each reporting date, work in progress is assessed for impairment. If work in progress is impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell; the impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss. |
| Taxation |
| Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. |
| Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
| Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Deferred tax |
| Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date. |
| Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |
| Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. |
| Foreign currencies |
| Items included in the financial statements for the company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates ("the functional currency").The financial statements are presented in 'sterling', which is the company's functional and presentation currency. |
| Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result. |
| Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
| Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |
| Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessees. All other leases are classified as operating leases. |
| Assets held under finance leases are recognised as assets at the lower of the assets fair value at the date of inception and the present value of the minimum lease payments. The related liability is included in the statement of financial position as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are treated as consisting of capital and interest elements. The interest is charged to profit or loss so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. |
| Rentals payable under operating leases, including any lease incentives received, are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease except where another more systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leases asset are consumed. |
| Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease. |
| Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised on a straight line basis over the lease term. |
| Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
| The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |
| A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the company has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods. |
| Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment. |

| Provisions |
| Provisions are recognised when the company has a legal or constructive present obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that the company will be required to settle that obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. |
| The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the reporting end date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. |
| Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount expected to be required to settle the obligation is recognised at present value. When a provision is measured at present value, the unwinding of the discount is recognised as a finance cost in profit or loss in the period in which it arises. |
| Employee benefits |
| The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be recognised as part of the cost of stock or fixed assets. |
| The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee's services are received. Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits. |
| Basic financial assets |
| The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 "Other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. |
| Financial instruments are recognised in the company's balance sheet when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. |
| Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. |
| Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at |
| transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised. |
| Impairment of financial assets |
| Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through profit and loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting end date. |
| Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows have been affected. If an asset is impaired, the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset's original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss. |
| If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the impairment is reversed. The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not exceed what the carrying amount would have been, had the impairment not previously been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in profit or loss. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Derecognition of financial assets |
| Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or when the company transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another entity, or if some significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained but control of the asset has transferred to another party that is able to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party. |
| Basic financial liabilities |
| Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised. |
| Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. |
| Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. |
| Other financial liabilities |
| Derivatives, including interest rate swaps and forward foreign exchange contracts, are non basic financial instruments. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognised in profit or loss in finance costs or finance income as appropriate, as the company does not hedge accounts. |
| Debt instruments that do not meet the conditions in FRS 102 paragraph 11.9 are subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss. Debt instruments may be designated as being measured at fair value through profit or loss to eliminate or reduce an accounting mismatch or if the instruments are measured and their performance evaluated on a fair value basis in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy. |
| Derecognition of financial liabilities |
| Financial liabilities are derecognised when the company's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled. |

| 3. | CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY |
| In the application of the company's accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. |
| The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods. |
| Critical judgements |
| The following judgements (apart from those involving estimates) have had the most significant effect on amounts recognised in the financial statements. |
| Impairment of debtors |
| The company makes an estimate of the recoverable value of trade and other debtors. When assessing impairment of trade and other debtors, management considers factors including the current credit rating of the debtors, the ageing profile of debtors and historical experience. See note 13 for the net carrying amount of the debtors and associated impairment provision. |
| Depreciation and residual values |
| The Directors have reviewed the asset lives and associated residual values of all fixed asset classes, and in particular, the useful economic life and residual values of fixtures and fittings, and plant and machinery and have concluded that asset lives and residual values are appropriate. |
| Dilapidation provisions. |
| The Directors makes an estimate of the future expected repair and removal costs required to restore the company's leased buildings to their fair and original condition at the end of the lease term. The estimate considers settlements made for similar leased buildings.The company makes provisions annually as it progress through the lease term. |
