Growing freight forwarder expands Humber footprint at heavily invested enterprise park

An expanding freight forwarding business has taken on new offices at Humber Enterprise Park.

Quality Freight Services Ltd will occupy a 2,000 sq ft suite at the Brough site, once part of the BAE Systems site that has reduced its footprint in recent years. The new 10-year deal follows an investment of more than £500,000 by Westcore Europe, which acquired the park in 2020, relaunching as a significant mixed-use proposition.

QFS is relocating from North Ferriby, having outgrown the original location. The international business, established nearly 30 years ago and headquartered in Bradford, has 17 offices across the UK and employs a team of 158 people, supporting a range of sectors including steel, modular building, and chemicals.
