Cumbrian branding firm invests £2.7m in new HQ

Cumbrian firm Ast Transport Branding has completed a multi-million pound drive to invest in a new purpose-built facility.

The fleet and rail branding company has ploughed £2.7m into a new 21,000 sq ft HQ on Penrith’s Gilwilly Industrial Estate.

Ast Transport Branding’s MD, Mark Aston, said: “This has been an enormous reinvestment project for us and it’s great to see it coming to fruition.

“Our new headquarters are state of the art and have been designed to our exact specifications enabling us to offer an even more efficient, professional service and be right at the cutting edge of technology.

He continued: “Our turnover grew by over 40% last year and in the last few months we have won significant national contracts.

“Our business is constantly evolving and expanding and this reinvestment will ensure we continue to be one of the best branding companies in the country.”

Established in 2002, Ast Transport Branding has provided its branding services to a number of national organisations, including North West PLCs Stobart Group and Speedy Hire, as well as the Royal Mail, the NHS and supermarket chain Tesco.
